At Junk Grunts, we know that winter in Spokane can make many outdoor projects feel impossible. But when it comes to excavation work, waiting until spring may not be the best strategy. Here’s why tackling excavation now, even in the winter, can save you time and money in the long run. Why Winter Excavation Makes Sense Less Ground Disruption The cold, frozen ground can actually make excavation work easier in some cases. Frozen soil is more stable, so there’s less chance of it shifting or becoming muddy like it might in the spring thaw. This means fewer delays and less mess to clean up once the job is done. Beat the Spring Rush Waiting until warmer weather to start excavation means you might be competing with many other homeowners for limited resources—like contractors and equipment. Starting now means you’ll be ahead of the spring rush, and your project will be more likely to get the attention it deserves. Preparation for Spring Projects Excavation is often the first step in many major home improvement projects, such as foundation work, landscaping, or drainage system installation. By getting it done now, you’re setting the stage for a smooth spring and summer of construction without waiting for snow to melt. Wrapping Up Excavation in the winter may seem like a tough call, but it can actually provide some significant advantages—less disruption, fewer delays, and a head start on your spring projects. At Junk Grunts, we’re here to help with your excavation needs, no matter the season. Whether it’s snow, mud, or sunshine, we’re always ready to tackle the job and make sure it’s done right!

At Junk Grunts, we know how important it is to be prepared for any challenge that comes your way—especially when it comes to maintaining your home. One hidden threat that many homeowners face is the presence of Orangeburg pipes, a material used in plumbing systems decades ago. If you're in the trenches, trying to figure out what’s lurking beneath your home, here’s your mission briefing on how to identify these problematic pipes. Step 1: Know Your Enemy – The History of Orangeburg Pipes Orangeburg pipes were once a standard choice for sewer lines in homes built between the 1940s and 1970s. Made from compressed layers of wood pulp and resin, these pipes were a cost-effective solution, but they weren’t built to last. As they age, they become more vulnerable to damage, and when failure strikes, it can cause major issues. Step 2: The Signs of Wear – Recon the Pipes Identifying Orangeburg pipes isn’t always a simple task, but here are some clues that might signal they’re in your system: Age of Your Home: If your house was built between 1940 and 1970, there's a high chance your plumbing could have Orangeburg pipes. Color & Texture: Orangeburg pipes are dark brown or black, and their surface is typically rough and uneven. Suspect Damage: If you’ve noticed frequent drain issues, foul odors, or water pooling in your yard, your pipes may have experienced root intrusion or have begun to deteriorate. Step 3: The Damage Control – What You Can Do If you’ve confirmed that Orangeburg pipes are present, it’s time to call in the experts for a full assessment. This may involve a video pipe inspection to determine the severity of the damage. If repairs aren’t an option, the best course of action is a full repipe with modern materials like PVC, which will provide much better durability and longevity. Mission Accomplished Identifying Orangeburg pipes early can save you time, money, and frustration down the line. So, take a proactive stance—get a solid recon of your plumbing, and stay ahead of any potential issues. At Junk Grunts, we’re ready to help with cleanup or any challenges you face in maintaining a safe, functional home.

When it comes to home plumbing, not many people are familiar with Orangeburg pipes—but if your home was built before the 1970s, there’s a chance you may have them lurking beneath your property.
