Maria’s Story — Steveston, Richmond BC
Maria had been dealing with slow drains for months. Every morning, her kitchen sink would take forever to empty. She tried store-bought solutions — nothing worked. When she finally called Encano Plumbing, our team discovered tree roots had infiltrated her main drain line.
Why Richmond Is Different
- Low-lying soil — causes pipe shifting and misalignment
- Heavy rainfall — overwhelms older drainage systems
- Aging homes — many Steveston and Broadmoor homes have pipes from the 1970s
- Tree roots — the city’s mature trees are aggressive on pipes
How to Fix It
The good news? Most drain problems are fixable quickly when caught early. Our team uses professional-grade equipment to clear blockages without damaging your pipes.
