Port Townsend 24/7 Commercial Emergency Response
After-hours response for main breaks, flooded common areas and buildings without water, with the site secured and pumps, lights and the excavator on the first trip.

Around Fort Worden and Point Hudson the commercial emergency response call usually begins with water running across a common area, parking lot. We quantify, trace, locate and fix, in that order, through clay seams in the uplands, and the board or owner gets written report with photos for owner along with restoration the following day.
The job on Port Townsend properties
The order matters: excavate and repair, then stop the water, then secure and pump. On marinas and waterfront industry at Point Hudson and the boat haven near Sheridan Street the second step is the long one, because sandy bluffs above the Strait and the length of the private system set the pace. The result is restoration the following day and immediate dispatch, any hour.
A crawlspace, mechanical room or lower level flooding is the other common trigger on marinas and waterfront industry at Point Hudson and the boat haven. We excavate and repair, which on a Port Townsend site through sandy bluffs above the Strait usually takes an overnight visit, then stop the water and secure and pump. The owner ends up with immediate dispatch, any hour they didn't have before.
What's under Port Townsend's larger sites
What we know about Port Townsend's larger properties: port Townsend's commercial stock runs from 1880s downtown buildings with century-old lines to the marina and boatyard facilities on fill at the water, all on the City's gravity system from the Quilcene. On senior living and medical facilities near Water Street we plan for outwash sand under the historic districts and for a system with no drawing.
Hand-dug transitions from 1920s to 50s galvanized to PEX next to brick and stone foundations in the historic districts, with the garden left as we found it.
Historic downtown commercial buildings and multi-family along the Sheridan corridor in Port Townsend share the same vulnerability: a private system in outwash sand under the historic districts with no drawing and a master meter that only reports totals. Commercial emergency response turns that into written report with photos for owner and a located problem near Fort Worden.
One crew, start to finish
Managers of multi-family along the Sheridan corridor in Port Townsend use us for commercial emergency response because one crew does the locate, the excavation in till toward Discovery Bay, the repair and the restoration, and because we answer at night. A dedicated trip across the Hood Canal Bridge, so an emergency near the boat haven doesn't wait for a crew from across the Sound.
