Just not sure if it was written down. I know the inside is all knew because you can see all of the new cement and its all PVC. When he snaked it definitely went outside, and I am thinking from his coil he used about 10-14 feet out side so i am going to guess it was by the sidewalk at that poiint. dye test is something i did not get done, probably something i should have but oh well. Hindsight is 20/20. not to many trees around my property. one big one on the front, i am guessing thats the culprit and one small one on the back. The only other tree would be on my neighbors property and they are pretty far away. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/roots-in-my-drain/185071)._
