Since there are a lot of trees and vegetation in Michigan, it is important to understand that tree roots can cause serious blockages that will cause sewage to back up all the way into your home. If you ignore these blockages, it can cause serious damage to your home.
The best way to prevent this kind of damage is to have your drains and sewer line cleaned multiple times a year. A professional plumber will have the proper tools to clear any large tree roots and keep the lines running smoothly and clearly.
