Plumbing in Westminster

Westminster borders Garden Grove, Fountain Valley, Huntington Beach and Seal Beach. Calls here usually go out from Costa Mesa, where we are based, or from whichever of our locations is closer to your address.

Most of the city's neighborhoods are flat tracts built in the 1950s and 1960s. Houses of that age often still have galvanized supply pipe, cast iron drains and clay sewer laterals, and all three wear out in ways you notice: weak pressure, slow drains and backups.

There are 29,269 homes in Westminster. The median year built is 1971, and 76 percent were built before 1980. Just over half, 55 percent, are single-family houses, with the rest in attached homes and apartments that can share a drain.

Little Saigon has many restaurants along Bolsa Avenue, and their kitchen grease lines are a regular call. Grease cools and hardens inside the pipe, so a slow kitchen drain, in a restaurant or at home, usually needs the whole line cleared and not just the trap.

Westminster borders Garden Grove, Fountain Valley, Huntington Beach and Seal Beach, and we cover every one of them, so help is sent from whichever of our locations is closest. Someone answers the phone at any hour, we look inside the line before anything is cut open, and the price is written down before the work begins.

Housing stock

How Westminster homes were built

  • 1971Typical year built
  • 76%Older than 1980
  • 55%Detached houses
  • 29,269Homes counted

Roughly 76% of Westminster homes went up before 1980. Houses of that age in California were usually plumbed with galvanized steel for water and cast iron for drains. Galvanized pipe narrows from the inside as it rusts, so the farthest shower loses pressure first; cast iron roughens inside until it snags paper and grease. On blocks this old, a drain that keeps clogging is often telling you about the pipe, not about what was flushed.

About 55% of Westminster homes are single-family detached; the others are townhomes, condos and apartments where neighbors share drain stacks.
