Loveland homes and their sewer lines
Homes around downtown and Lake Loveland date from the early 1900s through the post-war years, often with clay sewer laterals. Ranches and split-levels followed from the 1960s through the 1980s, and much of Loveland's newer housing has gone up since the 1990s toward the east and around the lakes.
Loveland Water and Power runs the city's water and wastewater systems; the service line on your lot is generally yours to maintain.
Common Loveland drain problems
Expansive clay soils common in Northern Colorado can shift older pipe joints, and mature trees in the older core find those gaps. Newer subdivisions see more kitchen line clogs, toilet clogs and lint in basement laundry drains. Winter cold reaches drains in garages and crawlspaces here too.

Loveland drain questions
Who is responsible for my sewer line in Loveland?+
The city maintains the main; the service line on your property is generally your responsibility.
Why do older Loveland sewer lines crack?+
Clay pipe is brittle, and expansive soils that swell and shrink can shift joints over decades, letting roots and soil in.
Can a plumber clear a drain in winter if it's frozen?+
Yes. They thaw it from inside with a steamer or hot-water jetter, then check for any clog.
