Tree roots love your sewer line. It’s warm, damp, and full of nutrients—exactly what aggressive roots are looking for. Once they find a crack or joint in your old earthenware or clay pipe, they sneak in and multiply fast. The result? Repeat blockages, toilet gurgles, nasty overflows, and costly emergency plumbing.
That’s where Vaporooter steps in.
Vaporooter is not just another foaming treatment—it’s a specially formulated herbicide foam designed to kill tree roots inside your sewer without harming the tree above or damaging your pipes. Applied after a high-pressure drain clean (hydro jetting), the foam fills the pipe, clinging to every joint, bend, and crack. It penetrates root cells and stops them from regrowing. The roots die off naturally and break down over time, restoring the flow of your drain.
Longbeach Plumbing, based in Cheltenham, are certified applicators of Vaporooter. We’ve helped hundreds of homes across Bayside—including Brighton, Hampton, Beaumaris, and Mentone—get lasting relief from tree root blockages. Our team ensures your drains are properly cleaned before application to maximise results.
Unlike mechanical cutting, which only buys you a few months of relief before the roots come back thicker, Vaporooter offers long-term protection. One treatment lasts up to 12 months, with annual treatments keeping roots at bay and your sewer flowing freely.
Beware of imitations—some companies claim to use Vaporooter but substitute it with cheaper, less effective products. Always ask for proof and go with a qualified provider like Longbeach Plumbing.
If you’ve had more than one sewer blockage in the past year, it’s time to act. Don’t wait for another overflow—protect your drains properly with Longbeach Plumbing and genuine Vaporooter.
