Why Chemical Solutions Are Better Than Mechanical

Mechanical root removal involves physically cutting away roots. This can damage pipes and lead to thicker regrowth, often requiring more frequent cutting.

Replacing or lining a pipe is expensive, can be disruptive and doesn’t guarantee the thirsty roots won’t find their way through the pipe once again.

Regardless of the method used, the best root control program is one that minimizes damage, disruption and costs through regular, proactive maintenance. Duke’s exclusive root control chemicals translocate up the roots with each application. This preventive maintenance prolongs the life of your pipes, providing you with substantial cost savings in the long run
