Much of Signal Hill was built out in the postwar boom of the 1950s and 1960s. Homes from that era often still have their original clay or cast-iron sewer laterals, and those pipes are now 60 years old or more. Clay joints let roots in, and cast iron scales and cracks from the inside, so root intrusion, offset joints and slow drains are the usual calls here.

Near the coast, Signal Hill has sandy soils and, in low-lying areas, a high water table. Groundwater can seep into cracked pipe, and digging below it can mean shoring and dewatering, which is one reason trenchless options get a close look here.
