The plumbing inside The Beaches houses
- Converted cottages often have plumbing added in stages, including crawlspaces where supply lines run close to the cold outer walls.
- Near the lake the water table sits higher, and sump pumps in some basements cycle steadily through spring.
What we get called for in The Beaches
- Here we thaw crawlspace pipes, replace tired sump pumps, fit frost-free hose bibs on porches, and tidy supply lines in houses that grew one addition at a time.
