What the homes in 75209 mean for plumbing
Bluffview's mature trees and sloping lots are hard on sewer lines. Roots work into older clay laterals, and soil movement on hillside lots can pull joints apart. Recurring main-line clogs in an older Bluffview house are often a root problem, not a grease problem.
When an old home is extensively remodeled, the new bathrooms and kitchen may tie into original supply and drain lines that were never replaced. Ask what was updated before you assume the whole house is new.
