[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4136076, member: 5412"] This. ^^^^^ orangeburg is like a laminated fiberglass pipe. It starts to delaminate and separate the layers just before collapsing completely. Most of it underground will no longer be round, it will be oval. Running a saw or removing the roots will only delay the complete replacement and cost more money for the "fix". I fought that battle of orangeburg for about 4 years, before finally sucking it up and replacing the line. I got my information by looking at the line I dug up, The 3" line from the utility room to the main was delaminated and oval in shape with parts of it only 1/2" away from a complete collapse. The OP's issue will never get better, only get worse. [/QUOTE]
