Hillsboro Biggest Plumbing Problems
PEX Fitting Failures in 1990s and 2000s Silicon Forest Communities
Hillsboro is the heart of Oregon Silicon Forest with Intel as the largest employer. Massive growth in the 1990s and 2000s produced thousands of homes with PEX supply systems and brass crimp fittings now 20 to 30 years old. Tanasbourne, Orenco Station, and South Hillsboro communities are seeing increasing joint failures.
Tree Root Sewer Intrusion from Willamette Valley Trees
Hillsboro established neighborhoods have Pacific Northwest and Willamette Valley tree canopies with root systems that seek out older sewer laterals. Root intrusion is a consistent cause of sewer backup in older Hillsboro neighborhoods.
Hard Water from Tualatin Valley Water District
Hillsboro draws from TVWD sources blending Willamette River water with local groundwater. Both carry moderate mineral content that deposits scale inside water heaters and supply fittings. Water heater scale is a growing complaint in newer Hillsboro tech-era homes.
Aging Galvanized in Older Hillsboro Neighborhoods
Hillsboro older neighborhoods near the historic downtown have homes from the 1950s and 1960s with galvanized supply lines now 60 to 70 years old, generating repiping calls in these older areas.
