WaterWork Plumbing: hydrojetting for Pleasant Ridge’s 1920s homes
Pleasant Ridge is a small, historic city just east of Woodward, most of it built between about 1910 and 1930 during a 1920s development boom. Its National Register historic district and tree-lined boulevards sit above some of the oldest sewer laterals in the area, largely original vitrified clay tile. More about the city is at the City of Pleasant Ridge.
Those old clay laterals plus the city’s mature boulevard tree canopy make root intrusion the number one problem here. Pleasant Ridge also runs on a combined sewer in the George W. Kuhn district, so heavy rain pressurizes the lines and pushes water toward basements.
A cable snake punches through a root mass and clears the clog for a while, but it leaves the roots and buildup on the pipe walls, so it grows back. WaterWork’s hydrojetting uses a root-cutting nozzle to clear the intrusion and scour the line back to close to its original diameter. Because these are original clay laterals, we camera the line first and set our pressure to match what the pipe can safely take.
