How This Automation Works
Root intrusion detected in inspection report → Treatment scheduled and technician dispatched with customer notification sent
Root Intrusion Detection and Data Capture
System receives inspection report with root intrusion findings or customer service request indicating drainage issues. Automatically extracts severity level, location within the septic system, system age and type, soil conditions, and customer priority status to initiate the treatment workflow.
Treatment Requirement Analysis
System evaluates root intrusion severity and determines appropriate treatment methods (mechanical cutting, hydro-jetting, chemical application, or root barrier installation). Calculates equipment needs, estimated service duration, and required technician certifications based on treatment complexity.
Technician and Equipment Assignment
System checks availability of certified root treatment technicians, verifies necessary equipment inventory, and assigns the optimal service team based on proximity, expertise level, and current schedule. Reserves required equipment and blocks technician calendar for estimated service duration.
Pricing Generation and Customer Notification
System automatically generates treatment pricing based on severity, selected method, and system accessibility. Sends customer notification with detailed explanation of root issue, treatment options with transparent pricing, available scheduling slots, and pre-service preparation instructions.
Dispatch Order Creation and Technician Briefing
Once customer confirms appointment, system creates comprehensive dispatch order with inspection photos, system specifications, treatment plan, equipment checklist, and customer contact details. Sends technician briefing with route optimization and estimated arrival time notification to customer.
Post-Treatment Follow-up and Maintenance Scheduling
After treatment completion, system automatically schedules preventive maintenance inspection based on treatment type and system characteristics. Sends customer care guidelines, warranty information for root barriers if installed, and appointment reminders to prevent future root intrusion issues.
How It Works
Root intrusion is one of the most critical septic system issues requiring immediate attention. Managing treatment scheduling, technician dispatch, customer communication, and follow-up appointments manually creates bottlenecks and risks service delays. This automation solution transforms your root treatment workflow by automatically scheduling appointments when root intrusion is detected, dispatching qualified technicians with the right equipment, sending real-time updates to customers, and scheduling preventive maintenance follow-ups. The system integrates with your inspection reports, service management platform, and communication channels to create a seamless end-to-end process. When a camera inspection reveals root intrusion, the system instantly evaluates severity, checks technician availability and equipment requirements, assigns the optimal service team, notifies the customer with treatment options and pricing, and schedules the appointment—all without manual intervention. Post-treatment, automated follow-ups ensure customers schedule their next preventive maintenance visit, protecting your revenue stream and their septic system investment.
The Trigger
When a septic camera inspection identifies root intrusion or when a customer reports drainage issues indicating potential root problems, the system automatically captures the severity level, location data, and system specifications to initiate the treatment scheduling process.
The Action
The system automatically evaluates root intrusion severity, checks technician certification and equipment availability, assigns the appropriate treatment specialist, generates a service quote based on treatment requirements, sends customer notification with scheduling options, creates the dispatch order with all relevant system details, and schedules follow-up preventive maintenance appointments.
