Welcome to Stormar Drainage Solutions. Let’s take a look at the root system that one single palm tree can create. As you can see, we have our trench being dug out here. And take a look at all these roots. Whenever you’re installing exterior drainage systems, roots are your number one enemy. You need to do everything at all cost to keep the roots out. Use CS, copper mesh, tile tape, solvent weld your joints if you’re working with PVC. Do everything in your power to keep these roots out of your drainage system.

Good to know, thanks!!
Bro. Do you have any idea wtf that costs? If you found a way to do it and it works good for you guys. We have weeping willows up here that jam up leetch fields for septic systems like a white small person on a bbc. I will replace your perf pipe in the field, im taking down that tree on my way out. People dont think. We build homes, im not installing your septic system next to a willow. I cant move the system, i can move the tree
You should see what a sugar maple root system looks like, beautiful trees, but boy howdy, they can find a pipe that leaks one drop per year……
They do I have 3 historical ones beautiful pineapple palms @60-70 ft and the roots have reached over the whole yard no drainage system so I'm not worried I just slopped the yard for natural drain. But they are everywhere when repairing sprinklers
