Housing on file: Rolling Acres
Rolling Acres stretches across north-central Whitby with detached homes from the late 1980s and 1990s, generous backyards, and mature trees planted when the area was new. Most homes on these streets have seen a kitchen or bath remodel by now, which means the plumbing behind the walls is a mix of eras.
Rolling Acres homes are now old enough that original copper, sump pumps and water heaters often need attention in the same few years.
Faults we meet on these streets
- Pinhole leaks in original copper supply lines
- Roots entering older sewer joints under the front lawn
- Pedestal sump pumps reaching the end of their service
- Renovations that left awkward, poorly vented drains

Margin notes
Trees planted in the eighties are now big enough for their roots to travel toward sewer laterals. If your main drain slows each autumn, a camera run will usually tell whether roots are the cause. Copper pinholes tend to cluster on hot lines near the water heater; when one appears, check the neighbouring joints too.
