What We See in Holladay’s 1950s and 1970s Housing Stock

Our technicians spend a lot of time in Holladay, and we consistently see the same infrastructure challenges in the neighborhoods near Highland Drive and 2300 East. A major issue we encounter is the state of the plumbing in homes built before 1975. Many of these properties still have original galvanized steel pipes, which rust from the inside out. This corrosion restricts water flow, leading to low pressure in showers and eventually causing pinhole leaks behind walls. We frequently perform repiping services here to replace these failing lines with modern PEX or copper.

On the HVAC side, the original ductwork in these ranch-style homes is often undersized for modern high-efficiency equipment. You might notice that your furnace runs loudly or that airflow is weak in bedrooms at the far end of the house. Over decades, ducts can also disconnect or develop leaks in crawl spaces and attics, wasting a significant amount of energy. We often find that comfort complaints aren't just about the equipment itself, but about how that air is being delivered through this aging network.

Hard water is another universal constant in this part of the valley. Without a functioning water softener, mineral scale builds up rapidly inside water heaters and fixtures. We see water heaters failing prematurely because sediment has calcified at the bottom of the tank, causing the unit to overheat and leak. This is a problem we tackle daily, not just in Holladay but also in neighboring areas like Cottonwood Heights where the water supply has similar mineral content.
