Local knowledge
What we see in Montclair homes
Montclair's housing stock runs from 1880s Victorians to 1920s and 1930s colonials, Tudors and center-hall homes, with 1950s and 1960s houses on the western slopes and multi-family and apartment buildings near Bloomfield Avenue and in the South End. Inside, that means cast iron drains, some original galvanized supply, clay laterals under streets lined with very large old trees, and radiators fed by steam or hot-water boilers, many of them converted from coal or oil. Big houses often have multiple heating zones, added bathrooms with undersized drains, and central air retrofitted with high-velocity or ductless systems. Toney's Brook and the low areas along it see basement water in heavy rain.

Common calls we get from Montclair
Roots in clay sewer laterals
Montclair's mature street trees send roots into every joint of an old clay lateral. We clear, camera, and replace failed laterals in PVC, permits included.
Radiator and steam boiler problems
Cold radiators, banging pipes and boilers that cycle on low water are typical in big old houses. We service vents, traps, low-water cutoffs and piping, and replace boilers sized to the actual radiation.
Additions on undersized drains
Bathrooms added over the decades were tied into drains that were never meant for them. We trace the problem and correct the piping and venting.
Cooling a house without ducts
Window units are not a plan. We install ductless mini-splits and high-efficiency systems that keep the house intact.
