Kirkland Biggest Plumbing Problems
PEX Fitting Failures in 1990s and 2000s Waterfront Communities
Kirkland saw massive growth in the 1990s and 2000s along the Lake Washington waterfront and in east Kirkland corridors. Homes throughout the city have PEX supply systems with brass crimp fittings now 20 to 30 years old. Totem Lake, Juanita, and Bridle Trails communities are seeing increasing joint failures.
Tree Root Sewer Intrusion from Pacific Northwest Trees
Kirkland established neighborhoods have Pacific Northwest tree canopies with root systems that seek out older clay tile and cast iron sewer laterals. Root intrusion is a consistent cause of sewer backup in established Kirkland neighborhoods.
Waterfront Saltwater Air Proximity
Kirkland Lake Washington waterfront properties face some accelerated corrosion on exterior plumbing components, though fresh-water lake exposure is less corrosive than ocean saltwater. However boat dock and waterfront properties see unique plumbing challenges from moisture and humidity.
