Growth Around the West Hills Retail Hub

Excavation contractors in Robinson Township work in a township that grew 16.1 percent between 2010 and 2020, from 13,354 to 15,503 residents, on 15.22 square miles about 12 miles west of Pittsburgh. Robinson Town Centre, Settlers Ridge and The Mall at Robinson make it a regional retail hub.

New homes, settling yards

Recent growth means many newer homes and townhomes with builder grading still settling. Drainage complaints, patio and pool projects and garage pads are typical.

Hilly commercial ground

Retail centers like Settlers Ridge were built on reshaped hillsides. Residential lots nearby share the same rolling ground, so grading and drainage plans account for slopes above and below.

Older housing too

In 2000 the township had 5,158 housing units. Those older homes need laterals, drainage and driveway work alongside the new construction.

Reworked hillsides

Robinson's commercial growth reshaped hillsides into large level pads. Residential lots on the same rolling ground deal with runoff from those big paved areas and roads. Drainage plans account for that extra water during storms.

Historic growth

Robinson had 1,917 residents in 1850 and grew slowly for more than a century, reaching 12,289 in 2000 before the recent boom. That means old farmhouses, postwar homes and new subdivisions side by side, each with its own digging needs.

Newer subdivisions

Recently built homes often have yards graded quickly during construction. As fill settles, low spots and water against foundations appear. Regrading and downspout lines usually fix it.
