Davison's 1960s–1990s Housing and Plumbing Lifecycle Planning
Davison's housing stock sits at the intersection of two service patterns. Older homes from the 1960s–1970s development are now at the age where copper supply lines are showing pinhole leaks, cast iron drain stacks have 50–60 years of corrosion, and sewer laterals may be developing root intrusion from established neighborhood trees. These homes are in reactive repair mode — something will need attention in the near term.
1980s–1990s Davison construction is in a different phase — largely functional but entering the window where water heaters (every 10–15 years), sump pumps (every 7–10 years), and drain systems merit planned maintenance rather than emergency response. The difference between a homeowner who plans these service cycles and one who waits for failure is typically one or two emergency service calls per decade — at premium emergency rates.
