> Hi there, I have had Poo Man out to unblock our drain for the second time in the last 6 years. The cause of the blockage appears to be from tree roots growing into the existing pipes in front of our house. I would like to have this section of the pipe replaced or repaired by the council. Please advise how to move forward
