The hidden reality of older home
plumbing. 🛠️
What you're seeing is a classic example of what happens when a cast iron main stack reaches the end of its lifespan.
Over several decades, moisture and sewer gases corrode the interior walls of cast iron pipes, slowly thinning the metal until a structural failure like this occurs.
Left undetected behind drywall, a collapsed drain stack can lead to severe water damage, structural rot, and health hazards from sewer gas leaks.
Our team cut out the compromised section and upgraded the system to modern & durable materials to ensure this home stays safe and dry for decades to come.
If your home was built before the 1980s and you're noticing slow drains or faint odors, it might be time for a professional inspection.
