I have a duplex where the plumbing was getting backed up.Had a plumber go out there and put a camera in the lines and turns out there are roots growing into the plumbing from a nearby tree.The quote to rip out and replace the plumbing was a staggering number.My thought is to cut down the tree to stop the growing and then eventually put the liner in the plumbing.Any experience with this?

Fortunately they don't have to--for people who purchase the book directly from BP here, they get free bonus content and one component of that is a list of 72 questions to ask a sponsor.Someone will read this and think I'm just trying to sell books--not the case.
