Drain Cleaning Highland, California | West Highland, East Highlands Ranch and the Foothills

West Highland’s older homes have clay laterals and cast iron drains that are now sixty to seventy years old or more. Roots from citrus trees left over from the groves, and from parkway trees planted with the homes, find the clay joints. Hard Inland Empire water has scaled the iron inside. A camera inspection shows which problem you have and where, so the fix is targeted.

East Highlands Ranch homes are newer, but thirty-plus years is when the first real problems appear. PVC and ABS lines can sag where the soil settled after grading, and joints can separate slightly. The heavy landscaping that makes the community attractive also means roots near the lateral. Repeat clogs in the same bathroom are the classic sign of a sag.

Highland sits right at the foot of the mountains, and the foothill streets take the brunt of Santa Ana winds and storm runoff. Yard drains, roof drains and drainage channels fill with leaves, soil and debris. When they block, storm water can pool against the house. A fall clearing prevents most of that trouble.

Many Highland households are large, and homes have been expanded with additions or casitas. Extra bathrooms and a bigger kitchen send more water through an original lateral, which is often what exposes a weak joint.

The restaurants and shops along Base Line and in the shopping centers near the 210 have commercial kitchens that need scheduled grease trap pumping and line jetting. We do that work before opening or after close.

Highland also borders the Santa Ana River wash and the San Manuel lands to the north, and the east end around Greenspot Road still has some larger lots with horses, orchards and outbuildings. Those properties often have long laterals, extra fixtures in barns or guest quarters and, in a few cases, older septic systems. We trace the line on the first visit so you know exactly what serves each building.
