The setting
Cachet has detached homes on generous lots, often with mature trees and estate-style landscaping. Many houses were built in the late 1980s and 1990s and have now had a kitchen or bathroom renovation or two. The country club and the nearby Bruce Creek valley give it a calm, green feel.
Thirty-year-old systems
Homes built around 1990 are now at an age where hidden parts begin to fail. Shower valves, supply stops, toilet flanges and water heaters are all candidates. We suggest a general plumbing check every few years: look under sinks, test valves, check the water heater and listen for running toilets.
Bathroom upgrades
Many owners here are converting jetted tubs to large walk-in showers with body sprays and rain heads. These can need larger supply lines, thermostatic valves and bigger drains. We review the plan with your designer to make sure the water heater and pipes can keep up.
From the van: If a jetted tub has not been used in years, its pump and lines can trap stale water. Run it with cleaner or plan to remove it.
Local note. Larger homes from the 1990s often have big tanks, softeners and older sump pumps.
