Chartwell is one of Severna Park’s most established neighbourhoods — the wooded lots, mature landscaping, and quiet streets that make it desirable also create specific plumbing conditions that have been developing for 40–50 years.
The Tree Canopy
Chartwell’s mature oak and maple trees are exceptional in their size and root spread. The sewer lines running under these properties — original cast iron from the 1960s and 70s — have had 40+ years of root pressure seeking moisture. Chartwell has among the highest rates of sewer line root intrusion we find on camera inspections anywhere in Severna Park.
The Housing Stock
Chartwell’s homes were built primarily in the late 1960s through 1980s. That means galvanized steel supply lines in many properties, cast iron drain stacks, and some polybutylene pipe in homes built between 1978 and 1985. These are the pipe systems that need attention now — not in another decade.
Private Wells
Portions of Chartwell, particularly farther from the main distribution lines, are on private wells. Iron content in the local aquifer is a common complaint — resulting in orange staining on fixtures and laundry. We service well pumps, pressure tanks, and iron filtration systems for these properties.
Clay Soil Movement
Chartwell’s clay-heavy soil shifts seasonally — expanding in the wet spring months and contracting in summer. This movement stresses crawlspace pipe connections in homes throughout the neighbourhood, contributing to the joint failures that give root systems their entry points.
