Original Plumbing, Seventy Years Later
Highland houses were built with the materials of their day. Many of them are now living on their second or third set of repairs.
Galvanized Pipe at the End of Its Life
Steel supply pipe rusts from the inside and narrows. The result is weak flow upstairs, brown water and leaks at the threads.
Clay Sewer Laterals and Big Trees
Clay pipe joins every few feet, and roots find those joins. A lot with mature maples can have a lateral that clogs every year.
Original Shower Valves
Valves from the 1950s and 1960s stiffen, drip and lose their hot and cold balance. Replacing them is a bathroom upgrade as much as a repair.

Capes and Ranches Built Between the 1940s and 1970s

Older galvanized pipe rusts inside and narrows over time. A pressure test and a look at your pipes tell us if a section or full repipe is needed.
Should I scope my sewer line?
If drains are slow, clogs repeat or you have big trees, a camera check is worth it. You own the whole lateral to the city main.
