Seorae Village: A Neighborhood Plumber From the Sadang Side of the Hill
The French quarter above Banpo is one of the closest international neighborhoods to our workshop. For families near the Lycée, we are the plumber who can realistically come between school drop-off and pick-up.
What Seorae homes throw at their pipes
Seorae Village is low-rise by design: detached houses and three-to-five-story villas climbing the Montmartre park slope. That housing stock — much of it from the 80s and 90s — produces a distinct set of calls:
- Ground-floor and semi-basement drains during summer rain. Houses cut into a slope collect runoff. If your lowest floor drain has ever burped up water in a downpour, the outside line needs jetting before the next rainy season, not after.
- Villa stacks serving stacked families. In small villa buildings the handful of households share short, old vertical lines. Recurring bathroom clogs usually trace to buildup in that shared run — we scope it, clear the whole line, and split the explanation cleanly between what is your unit's and what is the building's.
- Long-occupied family homes with original plumbing. Households that have been in the same house for years often live with a slow drain or a ticking water meter longer than they should. A camera inspection plus targeted repair usually beats the re-piping they feared was coming.
Language, practically: text us in English and we answer in English. Phone calls work in Korean or Japanese. For French-speaking households, written English by SMS with photos has worked smoothly for years — the photo does most of the talking, and every price is put in writing before work begins.

Seorae Village sits across Seoripul hill from our Sadang workshop. Send a photo of the problem and a photo of the approach to the house — gate, stairs, where a small truck can stop — and we reply with what it likely is and a realistic time window. For houses with gardens, mention whether the drain in question is inside or in the yard.
