So, hypothetical here...imagine you're minding your own business one weekend, just relaxing, and suddenly you notice your drains are backing up. You figure it's just a clog, right? But then you find out it's actually roots from the big old tree in your yard sneaking their way into your pipes. Like seriously, nature, why you gotta be like that?
Anyway, let's say you can't just chop down the tree because it's been there forever and you kinda like it (plus your neighbors might riot). How would you handle something like this without totally destroying your yard or wallet? Chemicals, DIY root-cutting tools, or bite the bullet and call a plumber? I've heard some horror stories about repairs costing thousands, but also seen some creative DIY fixes online that seem a bit sketchy.
Curious what approach you'd take if this happened to you...
