Mid-Century Streets in North Kirkland
Kingsgate sits in north Kirkland on the east side of I-405, and it joined the city in the 2011 annexation with Finn Hill and North Juanita. Much of it is established single-family housing on quiet residential streets, close to Totem Lake's shops and medical center. A neighborhood of homes that have been lived in for decades brings a familiar set of water problems: original supply lines and fittings, water heaters near the end of their life, and lower levels that were finished long after the house was built.
The Houses Here
Expect split-levels, ramblers and two-story houses, many with family rooms, bedrooms or offices finished into lower levels over the years. Finished space added later doesn't always come with the drainage or vapor control a new build would have, so a modest leak or seepage can reach carpet and drywall quickly.
Where Water Comes From in Kingsgate
- Original supply lines and water heaters in long-occupied homes
- Finished lower levels with carpet laid close to the slab
- Sump pumps that stop when winter windstorms take out power
- Upstairs bathrooms leaking into family rooms below
