Bathroom Plumbing in University Place: what is different here
Many University Place homes date from the 1960s to 1980s, and some on slopes have long drain runs, so a slow tub or toilet may point to the line, not the fixture. Near Chambers Bay or in Westwood, we fix bathroom plumbing and check the drain when needed. The drive is about 25 minutes via Bridgeport Way.
