Why Lakewood Homeowners Choose Us
Lakewood has a plumbing story unlike anywhere else. It was built almost all at once between 1950 and 1953 as one of the first mass-produced planned suburbs in the country, block after block of nearly identical tract homes going up in a matter of years. That makes Lakewood one of the most predictable cities we work in, because so many homes were built the same way at the same time.
When a whole city goes up together, it also ages together. We have worked Lakewood for decades and know exactly what to expect behind the walls of a classic Lakewood tract home.
Common plumbing issues in Lakewood
Lakewood's 1950s homes were built on concrete slabs with galvanized supply lines, which is a recipe for the two problems we see most here: slab leaks, where a corroded pipe under the foundation starts to seep, and galvanized lines that have rusted nearly shut and need repiping. Original cast iron and clay drains of the same age crack and clog, and water heaters from un-updated homes are long overdue.
Water quality in Lakewood
Lakewood has the hard water typical of the region, which scales up water heaters and adds to the corrosion already working on those original galvanized pipes. A water softener and regular water heater maintenance are especially worthwhile in Lakewood's uniformly aged housing.
Our commitment to Lakewood
We have served Lakewood since 1958 and treat every home like a neighbor's. You get a licensed technician on time and in uniform, a straight explanation of the problem, upfront pricing before we start, and a satisfaction guarantee behind the work.
