The housing stock
Detached homes, semis and townhouses with PVC and ABS drains, copper or PEX supply lines, and many sump pits. Many homes now have basement apartments for extended family or tenants.
- Builder-grade fixtures and shut-offs now 20 or more years old
- Water heaters that are often rented
- Sump pumps that run hard in spring
- Basement units sharing water and drains with the main home
What Springdale owners ask about
Basement apartments drive many calls: a second water heater, extra laundry, and making sure drains can handle two households. Sump pump replacement and backwater valves are common. Builder-grade faucets and toilets are reaching the end of their life.
Two households on one system
When two families share a house, hot water and drains work harder. We can size a larger water heater or a tankless unit and check that drains slope and vent properly.
