Drain & Sewer Service
in Park Slope
Park Slope runs uphill from Fourth Avenue to Prospect Park, and almost everything between is 19th-century brownstone and limestone row house.
The housing stock decides the problem
Three- and four-story rows built between the 1880s and 1910s, most still on their original house traps and clay laterals, many now split into duplexes with a garden-level apartment at the lowest point of the drainage system.
The garden apartment is the first to know
In a Slope row house, the garden-level unit sits below the house trap. When that trap blocks — and after a century of grease and roots, it does — the tenant down there gets the backup before anyone upstairs notices a thing. We clear traps in these houses constantly, and the fix is technique, not force: these are brittle, hundred-year-old fittings that a careless machine will crack.
Prospect Park's trees, your clay lateral
The mature street trees that make the Slope beautiful send roots straight toward the nearest water — which is the seam in your clay sewer lateral. Root intrusion here is seasonal and predictable. A camera survey tells you whether annual cutting or a proper repair is the smarter money, and we'll show you the footage rather than just quoting a number.
