Municipalities generally maintain the public main and nothing beyond it, so a blockage in your lateral stays yours even where it crosses public ground. Some places will send someone to check the main first, which is useful because it rules out the one thing that isn't your responsibility. Call the local public works office to ask before assuming either way.

Not always. Roots travel much farther than most owners expect, so the culprit is often a street tree or a neighbor's tree rather than anything on the property. That matters because removing your own tree may not solve anything if the intrusion is coming from elsewhere.

Root growth tracks the tree's water demand, so an intrusion that's manageable in cold months can close the line as the tree pulls harder. Rain events add to it by loading the line at the same time. That seasonal rhythm is a fair reason to schedule a look rather than wait.

Age is the best clue. The oldest runs are usually clay tile in short jointed sections, mid-century homes often have cast iron or fiber conduit, and anything recent is plastic in continuous lengths. Jointed materials are the ones roots exploit, so a plumber will want to know the era of the house before guessing.

A camera inspection of the lateral is one of the few checks that reliably turns up an expensive surprise, and standard home inspections generally don't include it. It matters most on older properties with mature trees near the line. Ask for the recording, not just a verbal summary.
