What’s happening beneath your lawn might surprise you. This inspection chamber rim is a perfect example of how determined tree and grass roots can be. Drawn to moisture, roots can find their way into tiny cracks in our sewer network, and once they’re in, they keep growing. The result? Blockages, overflows, and damage to the network that keeps wastewater flowing safely away from our homes. We’re always working behind the scenes to maintain and protect this essential infrastructure, but smart planting choices can make a big difference too. If you’re thinking about planting in your yard, our free guide can help you choose the right plants for the right place, reducing the risk of roots impacting underground pipes. A little planning above the ground can help prevent big problems below it! Check out the guide here: https://lnkd.in/gXiNVrUa
