Plumbing in Westlake, Ohio: Common Issues Homeowners Face

Old Brooklyn homes have been built, bought, and passed down for more than a century. Some streets are lined with early-1900s one- and two-family houses; others are filled with post-war bungalows and Cape Cods. More and more of them are being updated by new owners who love the neighborhood. Whatever kind of home you have, its plumbing has a history, and we know how to work with it.
The older streets off Pearl and State were built up with one- and two-family homes in the first decades of the 1900s. These houses often have galvanized supply lines, heavy cast iron stacks, clay sewer laterals, and years of patchwork repairs. In two-family homes, the units often share drains, a sewer line, and sometimes a water service.
Areas built after World War II are mostly single-family homes. Their plumbing is newer but still 70-plus years old, galvanized water lines, cast iron drains, and original valves are common, and many are reaching the end of their useful life.

This place is great – In and out quickly, and the technicians, Dale and Chase, were respectful, exceptionally kind and even really funny too. They created a safe and welcoming environment and explained everything very simply, in a way that was easy to understand. I would definitely use this company again, as this was a great experience. They even squeezed us in for a same day appointment, which was great. You guys are the best – Thanks so much for your wonderful service!
Great experience, staff was professional, knowledgeable, and quick. I will be calling them for all my plumbing issues in the future!
Thank you Greg & Dale for being so awesome!
