Montrose is a short run from the shop and one of the neighborhoods where seventy years of local experience earns its keep. The houses are old, the trees are older, and the plumbing has stories.
The plumbing in Montrose
Much of Montrose was built between the 1910s and the 1930s, on pier and beam as often as on slab, and originally plumbed in galvanized and cast iron. The neighborhood canopy is the other half of the story. Mature oaks over clay sewer lines produce the recurring clog we camera inspect constantly here: roots at a joint, cleared, back again in a year. Heavy renovation across the neighborhood also means we frequently find work done by four different plumbers across four different decades in the same house.
