Northglenn Sewer Repair Specialists

Summer 2026 Sewer Advisory for Northglenn Homeowners

Northglenn was built almost entirely between 1959 and 1975, which means most homes in the original Northglenn grid, Hillcrest, and Marshall Lake neighborhoods are running on clay or ABS sewer laterals that are now 50-65 years old. These pipes have exceeded their designed service life. The spring thaw cycle has already moved surrounding soil, and elm and cottonwood roots are now in their most aggressive growth phase through June. Summer thunderstorms in Adams County add sudden volume surges that overwhelm compromised laterals -- a pipe with minor root intrusion in April can produce a full basement backup after a heavy July downpour. Scheduling a camera inspection now, before the summer repair backlog builds, is the most cost-effective way to know where your lateral stands.
