What Plumbing Problems
Should I be Aware of in Kent Washington?

• Tree root intrusion
  Kent's mature trees and heavy rainfall create an ideal environment for roots to invade pipes, especially affecting older neighborhoods with aging sewer systems. As trees grow, their roots can reach underground sewer lines and wrap around them, causing pipes to break and damaging property.
• Aging and deteriorating pipes
  Older homes may have sewer pipes made from materials like clay that become brittle with age. Pipes can break, develop leaks, or the worn-down material can catch on waste or debris, causing clogs to build up.
• Debris buildup during rainy season
  Heavy rainfall creates conditions for debris to build up in drain lines, making professional drain cleaning particularly important during the rainy season.
• Bellied pipes
  A sagging section in your sewer line can prevent proper drainage.
• Cracked or broken pipes
  Shifting soil and aging can result in cracked or broken pipes that require prompt repair.
• The City of Kent also advises residents
  to avoid planting trees or large shrubs near or over sewer lines, as roots grow toward breaks and cracks in pipes seeking water, and can form balls that clog the line. Regular sewer line inspections are recommended, especially for older homes.
• The age of buildings in Kent
  In Kent, the median construction year is 1985. About 1.9% of homes were built before the 1940s, with another 1.3% going up by 1949. Most development happened in the second half of the 20th century. Then, 12.2% of homes were added from 2000 to 2009, 8.4% between 2010 and 2019, and 0.7% are part of the newest wave of development. (Reference point2homes.com)
