California Drain Experts sees the most main line calls in Downtown, Gerstle Park and Dominican, Terra Linda and the Canal District. In Downtown, Gerstle Park and Dominican, we mostly work on victorian and early 1900s homes with old laterals. In Terra Linda, we mostly work on 1950s and 1960s Eichler homes on slabs.

Fall in San Rafael brings warm days and oak leaf drop into hillside drains. Summer in San Rafael is dry, and big tree roots push into old laterals. Spring in San Rafael brings fast root growth after the winter storms. Winter storms in San Rafael flood low Canal streets and test hillside drains. Our advice for San Rafael homes: dominican and Gerstle Park owners should rake oak duff off yard grates in late October.

In San Rafael the property owner is responsible for the private sewer lateral that runs from the house to the public main, and the public agency maintains the main in the street. Roots, sags and breaks in that lateral are the owner’s to fix, so California Drain Experts films it and shows you where the problem sits. On San Rafael private lines, the problem we film most often is the one covered above: Century-Old Laterals.
