Union City work

What we are called for

Three causes behind most Union City call-outs

Water damage is not randomly distributed. What fails in a given area is decided by when it was built, what it was built on and what the weather does to it — and in Union City that produces a recognisable short list.

1. 1

   1960s and 1970s tract slabs

   The housing built during the city’s main expansion sits on concrete with its plumbing inside it. Failures at that age are pinholes, they spread laterally under the floor, and nothing surfaces until the meter or the bill reports it.

2. 2

   Flat low ground with slow drainage

   Very little fall across the city means storm water stands rather than running off. Garages, ground-floor rooms and sunken entries take it across a threshold, dirty, rather than through a plumbing failure.

3. 3

   Attached and multi-family housing sharing assemblies

   Townhomes and apartments make one failure into several affected households. The drying is straightforward; identifying every affected unit and getting access to all of them on the same day is the part that decides the outcome.

Honest pricing

What it costs in Union City

• Category 1 — clean water

  Low risk if dried quickly
