South San Francisco's Drain & Sewer
Specialists
South San Francisco — the Industrial City — has a residential stock spanning from its early 1900s downtown core to postwar development in Sunshine Gardens and Westborough. The historic downtown and Sign Hill neighborhoods have cast iron sewer laterals from the 1910s–1940s now 85–115 years old. South San Francisco's dual bay-and-Pacific exposure creates compound coastal moisture conditions that accelerate external cast iron corrosion more aggressively than inland cities. The city's industrial legacy along the bay corridor means some residential areas in Lindenville and Old Town are adjacent to former industrial sites with soil conditions that can affect below-grade pipe performance.

Backups when it rains
South San Francisco laterals take on groundwater through cracked joints. The first storm of the year is when many San Mateo County homeowners find out. A camera in dry weather is cheaper than a Sunday sewage backup.
