Homes around the ridgelines off US-281 north of the county line are mostly 1990s onward, with older ranch properties mixed in, and sewer laterals from that era were built from materials with a known service life. In Bulverde we see clay and cast iron regularly, and both fail in ways a camera makes obvious.
In Bulverde the driver is heavy mineral scale that clogs aerators, valves and heater elements. Combined with well pressure swings that stress fixtures and water heaters, it explains why sewer calls here often turn out to be structural rather than a simple blockage.
In older parts of Bulverde, hill-country stone and stucco homes on large lots and mature landscaping constrain the approach. We plan the route around what you would hate to lose, rather than taking the shortest line to the main.
