Residential Properties
Much of Midtown's housing is a century old, which means galvanized pipe corrosion, tight original layouts, and plaster and trim worth protecting when a wall has to open. Many blocks are served by rear alleys where the sewer lateral and cleanouts sit, and we work from those access points to keep digging and demolition to a minimum. We update what runs behind the walls, from failing supply lines to worn fixtures, while keeping the home's period character intact rather than gutting it for convenience.
Commercial & Multifamily
Midtown's tight run of restaurants, cafes, bars, and boutiques depends on drainage and hot water holding up through a full service, especially along Capitol Avenue and the Handle District. We handle high-use commercial kitchen lines, restrooms, and fixtures, and we plan the messy work around the neighborhood's steady lunch, dinner, and weekend traffic so your doors stay open.

Frequently Asked Questions
Often yes. Galvanized lines rust from the inside over the decades, which drops your pressure and can tint your water. We check the actual condition and flow, then explain whether targeted repairs or a full repipe is the better value for your home.
On Midtown's tree-lined blocks, roots work into the joints of older clay laterals and trap waste until the line backs up. We run a camera inspection to confirm exactly where and why, then clear the line and lay out repair options if the pipe is damaged.
Usually, yes. Many Midtown lots put the lateral, cleanout, and even the water heater off a rear alley, and we work from there to avoid opening more of the home or yard than needed. Tell us your block and we will plan the access before we arrive.
Yes. We plan access points to open the smallest area we can and work to preserve original plaster, trim, and flooring during repairs and repiping. Older Midtown homes are hard to match once cut, so we treat them carefully.
