Long service lines
Underground lines across big lots can crack from roots or age.
Bridle Trails is Kirkland's horse country. Large wooded lots, private paddocks and riding trails surround Bridle Trails State Park, a forest park with miles of equestrian trails on the Kirkland and Bellevue line. Bigger properties bring their own water problems: long underground water lines, barns and shops, and drainage across acreage. Our emergency crews answer 24 hours a day and reach Bridle Trails the same day.
On a large Bridle Trails lot, the water line from the street to the house can run a long way underground. A break there may only show up as a higher bill, a soggy patch in the yard or water seeping into the crawl space. Shut off the main and call us. Our leak detection finds where water is getting into your home, and we can work with your plumber on the line itself.
Underground lines across big lots can crack from roots or age.
Rain collects in low spots and runs toward homes and outbuildings.
Windstorms bring limbs down on roofs. See roof tarping.
Many ranch homes sit over crawl spaces that stay damp all winter.
Detached buildings with water lines can freeze and burst.
More bathrooms and fixtures mean more places for a leak to start.
| Building | Common problem | Service that helps |
|---|---|---|
| Ranch homes | Damp crawl spaces, old supply lines | Crawl space water damage |
| Newer estate homes | Leaks in upper-floor bathrooms and laundry | Ceiling water damage |
| Homes with daylight basements | Seepage after heavy rain | Flooded basement cleanup |
| Barns, shops and studios | Frozen pipes, roof leaks | Burst pipe cleanup |
| Homes under big trees | Storm damage and roof leaks | Storm damage |
Bridle Trails properties often have more than one structure. We look at all of them, not just the house.
A home office, gym or guest studio over the garage often has its own plumbing. If the heat is low in winter, pipes there can freeze. We dry walls, floors and cabinets just like in the main house.
Water lines to barns and stalls can break in a cold snap. We remove water, dry framing and help limit mold in hay storage and tack rooms.
Outbuildings may be covered differently than the house. Our claim help keeps records for each building separately.
Keep a little heat in any outbuilding with plumbing, or drain the lines before a hard freeze.
Clean gutters. Needles and leaves from tall firs fill them fast.
Make sure downspouts carry water well away from the foundation.
Check that yard drains and ditches are clear.
Look in the crawl space for standing water or a torn vapor barrier.
Know where the main shut-off is, and any shut-offs for barns or shops.
Insulate exposed pipes in garages and outbuildings.
We help you find the main and stop the water.

On a large lot, the underground line to the house may be leaking. Watch your meter with all water off. If it still moves, call a plumber for the line and us to check for water inside.
Yes. We dry detached buildings the same way as homes and keep separate records for insurance.
Many ranch-style homes do. Damp crawl spaces are one of the most common problems we see here.
Usually the same day, often within a couple of hours.
Yes. We tarp roofs and dry attics and ceilings. Large trees on the roof need a tree service first.
