Plumbing help in Ballard

Request a callback

Ballard grew up as its own town before Seattle annexed it, and the plumbing shows the age. The core streets are early-1900s craftsman bungalows and foursquares on original-era laterals, many with basement fixtures and low-set drains that run trouble through the wet season. Sunset Hill and the streets toward the water carry the same pre-war stock on sloped lots. Around Market and 15th, townhouse and apartment infill keeps going up on top of it all.

What gets called in around Ballard?

• Sewer scopes and lateral work, century-old clay pipe under the core bungalow streets
• Repipes, galvanized-era supply lines in the pre-war housing finally aging out
• Basement drainage and ejector work, low-set fixtures in the older homes
• Fixture and remodel plumbing, a constant in a neighborhood this actively renovated
