Sun Glow has repaired and installed plumbing in Portland-area homes for more than 50 years, so we know what time does to a home's pipes. Older homes in neighborhoods like Sellwood and Irvington can have cast iron or clay sewer lines that fill with roots. We show you the problem when we can and let you decide how to proceed.

Portland Plumbing FAQ

Every plumbing call starts with a question, and the answers change with the age of your house and the pipes inside it. Sun Glow hears the same local questions every season, from freeze worries in January to root problems in August. Here are the ones we hear most.

Why Do My Drains Keep Clogging in an Older Portland Home?

Mature trees and older sewer lines make a tough pair, because roots find tiny cracks in clay and cast iron pipe and grow inside. A drain that keeps slowing down points to something in the line, and a snaked drain may clear for a week before the roots return. Our technicians use a camera to see the cause, and hydro jetting scours the line clean.

Should I Get a Sewer Line Inspection Before Buying a Home?

Yes, a camera inspection shows sags, cracks, and root damage that a walkthrough cannot. A sewer line replacement is one of the largest repairs a house can need, so you want to know about it before closing. Our technicians give you a clear report, and you can use it to plan your budget or negotiate the price.

Can Pipes Freeze in Portland?

Yes, a cold snap with east wind out of the Columbia River Gorge can freeze pipes in crawl spaces and exterior walls. If a pipe bursts, shut off your main water valve and call us, because we take emergency calls 24/7. Our plumbers repair the break and check the nearby lines for damage.

Does Portland Have Hard Water?

Portland's Bull Run supply is soft, so many homes inside the city do not need a softener. Groundwater supplies in parts of Clark County run harder, and mineral buildup can shorten the life of your fixtures and water heater. If you do have hard water, a water softener protects your plumbing, and water filtration improves the taste of what you drink.

Is a Tankless Water Heater Worth It in Portland?

A tankless unit can suit you if you run out of hot water or want to free up closet space. Cold incoming water in winter makes sizing important, so our plumbers calculate your household's hot water needs before recommending a model. Your options and costs for tankless water heaters go in a written estimate, and you choose with the full picture.
