Working in Elm Park

Elm Park is where the company started: one van, a toolbox, and the houses around Schoolhouse Green. Most streets here were built in the 1950s and early 60s, with brick family houses, full basements, and the original galvanized steel supply pipes. Many of those pipes are near the end of their life, and much of our work here is replacing them before they leak.

Our three Elm Park vans work from a small base on Mapleton. Every street is a short drive away, which is why same-day visits are easier to get here than anywhere else we cover.

The trees that give the area its name are the other half of the work. Elm, maple, and linden roots find their way into the clay sewer laterals that run under the front lawns, and a slow drain in autumn is often the first sign. We run a camera through the line before we quote, so you see the problem on screen and know whether it needs cutting, lining, or a new section of pipe.

If you live on the Fernwood side, mention the lane name when you book: some of those houses share a driveway, and a few share a sewer connection too.

What to know in Elm Park

  • Roots in the sewer lateralsThe elms and maples along Linden Row send roots into the old clay sewer pipes. Slow drains in several rooms at once usually point to the lateral, not the sink.Sewer
  • Basements with the plumbing in reachNearly every house has a full basement, so the main stack, the water heater, and the shut-off valve are easy to reach. Most repairs here take a single visit.Homes

    Our 1960s house still had galvanized pipes and the upstairs shower barely ran. They repiped the bathroom branch in a day, patched the access holes, and the pressure is back to normal.

  • Rated 5.0 out of 5

    A supply pipe split above our dental clinic's waiting room at 6 am. A plumber was on site within the hour, isolated the line and had the room dry before our first patient. They came back that evening to replace the whole section.

    Replaced the kitchen mixer and two angle stops that would not close. Tidy work and a fair price. One star off because I had to call to get the invoice emailed.

Do you work in the Fernwood side streets?

Yes, every street in 55507, including the private lanes off Cedar Commons.

Do I have to repipe the whole house at once?

No. We can replace the worst runs first, usually the kitchen and bathroom lines, and do the rest later. A pressure test shows where to start.

Can you clear tree roots without digging up the garden?

Often, yes. We cut the roots with a cable machine and can line the pipe from the inside. Digging is only needed when the pipe has collapsed.
