I have two problems and need some input. First I know I have a tree root problem I have been using copper sulfate and having the sewer snaked every 6 to 12 months. I also have a problem with a build up of sludge in the main pipe leaving the house due to a shift in the foundation ( a dip in the pipe that causes sludge to from). To get the most for my money and have less problems I was considering using the BIO Clean product to keep my inside drains clean and take care of the sludge and use Root X for the tree roots. It seems it would cost around $250.00 a year. Can I get the same results with the copper sulfate? Will copper sulfate eat away at the sludge? Is ciooper sulfate bad for pipes? I don't want to spend unnessasary money but I don't want to create big prolbmes either. PLEASE HELP!!!!!!! Thank you

A problem won,t go away until its cured, the only good advise from thescruff is to dig it up and relay the pipe using underground plastic pipe, problem solved.
