Southhampton is a quaint, tree-lined neighborhood in the southwest corner of the city. The oldest homes in this community date back to 1905, with the majority being built between the early 1920s and late 1930s. During this period, sewer pipes were made from clay, cast iron, or galvanized steel. The longest lasting of these is cast iron, with a lifespan of up to 100 years, which means these pipes need to be replaced soon if they haven’t already.
Even newer homes require regular drain cleaning and occasional plumbing services. Southampton residents with plumbing issues—or in need of plumbing services—have trusted the experts at Maplewood Plumbing and Sewer since 1985.

Water Heater Services
Your water heater works hard every day to heat the water that enters your home from about 50-degrees Farenheit to around 105-degrees (the average shower temperature). It’s no wonder then that the typical lifespan of a traditional water heater is 8-12 years! Whether yours is gas or electric, you’ll eventually need to give it some attention. A professional plumber can tell you whether you need water heater repair or replacement.

Southampton Sewer Lateral Program
A residential sewer lateral is the sewer pipe that runs from your home’s foundation to the sewer main. The sewer pipes inside your home can become clogged or crack due to tree roots or other issues. In much the same way, the main sewer drain that leads all the way to MSD can break or clog, and that can be extremely expensive to fix (upwards of $15k).
Thankfully, the community of South Hampton is part of St. Louis City, which does have a Sewer Lateral Repair Program to offset the costs of repairing a broken sewer lateral.
If you experience slow drains, foul odors, or low water pressure, you could have a clogged drain pipe. Knowing where the blockage is located is important, because if the clog is somewhere along the sewer lateral, the St. Louis City Sewer Lateral Repair Program may cover a portion of the repair costs. As the homeowner, you’re responsible for hiring a plumber licensed in the city of St. Louis to diagnose the blockage. You’ll need to submit a plumber’s report along with a video of the issue to the Street Department. Maplewood Plumbing’s camera drain inspection shows you exactly where the problem is and provides you with a video that you can submit with your Sewer Lateral Repair Application.
