Homes here
Bungalows, side-splits and two-storey houses built in the sixties and seventies, often on deep lots with yards backing onto green space. Original cast iron drains and older copper lines are common.
- Cast iron drain stacks that may be scaled or cracked
- Older copper supply lines with occasional pinholes
- Clay or early plastic sewer laterals
- Water heaters in tight utility rooms
What Northwood Park owners call about
Main line backups caused by tree roots, leaks in copper lines, and aging shut-off valves that no longer close. Many homeowners are renovating kitchens and bathrooms and want to update pipes while walls are open.
Ravine lots
Homes backing onto the creek valley can have higher groundwater. If your basement has a sump pit, test it before spring melt each year.
Older trees along the valley edge make root intrusion common, so a yearly look down the lateral is a sensible habit for owners on those lots.

Questions we get
Is it worth replacing copper while I renovate?
If the copper is original and has had leaks, replacing exposed sections during a renovation costs much less than doing it later.
