Deerfield Beach's older sewer laterals
Pre-1980 housing here is 62%, above the Florida figure of 35%. That ranks 6th highest of the 111 Florida cities we profile. Clay pipe lets roots in at the joints, cast iron scales and cracks, and the line from the house to the street belongs to the homeowner in most places.
Only 25% of homes are single-family detached, so many sewer problems involve a shared building line. Check with your HOA or landlord before booking work.
In Florida: Slab-on-grade construction, high water tables and hurricane flooding shape plumbing work, from slab leaks to sewer backups.
