Frequently asked questions
This is older housing for the Valley. What tends to go first?
Copper, usually. A supply line poured into a slab in the early eighties has had four decades of hard water moving through it, and pinhole failures cluster once that clock runs out. Roof details matter as well, but the buried plumbing is what shows up first and costs the most to reach.
Can dust really stop a roof from draining?
It can, because nothing ever washes it back out. A haboob leaves a fine silt that packs into a drain opening and sets there, and with months between storms no flow arrives to clear it. By the time rain does come the outlet is a fraction of its original size.
How long might a pipe under the slab leak before anyone notices?
Long enough that the water bill is often the first witness. There is no crawlspace for it to drip into, so the escape travels through soil beneath the concrete and only announces itself when flooring lifts or one patch of tile stays warm underfoot. Weeks is common, a whole season not unusual.
