Kids 1st house started having issues a week after moving in .I lived the nightmare of orangeburg 40 years ago. Fought tree roots constantly and ended up running pvc from the house to the street. Fortunately, it wasn't that long of a run but still pricey.
The company I worked for had a sewer service so the 1 couple time I got it with the big machine ,the 3rd I took the jetter over and pulled a piece of Orangeburg back .
The sewer ran parallel to and in the right away of a state highway. I showed the pics of the locates to the operator at work he wanted no part of it.
So I called a buddy that had went on his own. He said no problem I'll be there Saturday morning, have the pipe and some ferncos .
We got done at noon . Had cast inside to hook up to and pvc where it had been extended to the city main he pushed a rod through about a 120 foot with no problem the pushed the pvc through that .
Where we dug at the house it had collapsed to about a inch tall ..
