Is Bamboo invasive to pipes and foundations

I have Bamboo quite close to a grid, which is constantly blocking up when jet sprayed, even sand is coming up. The bamboo is so bad now it is coming up through the drive. We have cut it back several times but, of course, this isn’t stopping the roots. Is there anything I could do besides paying a lot to have it excavated by plumbers?
