Many Pikesville homes were built from the 1930s to the 1960s, often larger houses with boilers, radiators and original cast-iron drains. Water comes from the Baltimore City system and permits from Baltimore County.
Plumbing in Pikesville: what's different
Pikesville's established neighborhoods include larger brick and stone homes that still heat with hot-water boilers and radiators, which is why boiler service is common here. Original cast-iron drains and clay laterals under mature trees are typical sources of repeat clogs.
