Neighborhoods, Landmarks & Roads We Serve in Detroit
Detroit's century-old homes and multi-family flats often still carry lead and galvanized service lines and failing cast-iron drains — the aging infrastructure of a city built generations ago. Repiping to modern materials, clearing old cast-iron stacks and addressing service lines is the defining work across its neighborhoods. Century-old plumbing carries real risks, so we prioritize getting clean, safe water flowing and drains running reliably again, whether it's a single-family home or a multi-unit flat.
Older-Home Plumbing Tips for Detroit
Detroit's century homes and flats often carry lead or galvanized service lines and failing cast-iron drains, so if you have rusty water, low pressure or recurring clogs, have the system evaluated and plan a repipe before a line fails. If a lead service line is possible, check with your water utility and follow current guidance on flushing and filtration while you plan a replacement. Jet the old cast-iron drains rather than using chemicals, and if you're buying an older home or flat, a plumbing inspection tells you exactly what's carrying your water.
