Old pipes, big trees, and what that means for your house

The mature trees are beautiful and brutal. Root intrusion into aging clay and cast-iron sewer laterals is one of the most common causes of sewage backups we see in this part of town. Add summer clay-soil movement stressing old slabs, and downtown homes earn their water problems honestly.

What we do on the first visit

We extract the standing water, map the moisture with meters and a thermal camera — including crawlspaces on pier-and-beam homes, where water hides — and start drying the same day. You get a written estimate before any work starts, and moisture readings at every visit.
