Homes from every decade
Highland's median home was built in 1983, and about 44% of its homes were built before 1980, according to Census data. More were built in the 1980s than in any other decade. Older homes can still have galvanized water lines that rust from the inside, and clay or cast-iron sewer lines that crack and let roots in. See repiping, sewer line repair and trenchless sewer repair.
Before we recommend a repipe, we inspect the system and explain your options. Sometimes a repair is all you need.
Highland water
East Valley Water District (EVWD) supplies most of Highland's water and provides its sewer service. About 78% of EVWD's water is groundwater from the Bunker Hill Basin, and 22% is surface water from the State Water Project and the Santa Ana River. Its latest water quality report, published in June 2026, lists total hardness at 152 mg/L, about 9 grains per gallon.
EVWD notes that hard water is common for providers that rely on groundwater, and suggests lowering your water heater's temperature to reduce buildup. A water softener or whole-house filtration system helps protect your pipes, fixtures and appliances.
Water heater permits in Highland
The City of Highland lists water heaters among the residential work that needs a permit. Its water heater installation notes call for:
- Seismic straps in the upper and lower thirds of the tank, at least 4 inches above the controls
- A drain pan when the heater sits in an attic or on an upper floor
- Burners at least 18 inches above a garage floor
- A relief-valve drain that runs outside and ends 6 to 24 inches above grade
Ask us about it when you book a water heater replacement.
