I know they talk about everything as "tile" due to how it is used, but for me tile is only that clay or concrete pipe with short lengths and bell and hub with no gasket or seal.existing tile (clay and plastic, depends on location)
Everything else is "pipe" to me. you can call it a tile line all you want but when it comes in 13's or 20's, that's pipe.
I'd do SDR gasketed myself.
The tree roots only kill that open joint concrete or clay. I have replaced lots of old side sewers with that stuff. Roots, it wears right through on the bottom, the bell bottom breaks off and displaces, you name it.
The worst thing is Orangeburg but you'll never see that. (crossed fingers)
