Crawl Space Leak Fixed in Northlake, IL
March 2, 2023
Larry’s Plumbing recently fixed a crawl space leak for a customer in Northlake, IL. A broken p-trap under the floor of the bathroom was investigated and several solutions were presented to the customer.
We agreed on the best solution to solve the issue by cutting out existing drains and vents for the bathroom. New pvc pipe was installed from the stack to the bath tub. All pipes were braced with pvc j-hooks.
All work was done in the crawl space under the house. All piping was tested and work area cleaned up to the customer’s satisfaction.
