Seasonal timing

December's 13F average low is enough to ice a common stack where it passes a closed-off stairwell, and the pressure drop reaches both units at the same time.

Common questions

How much does a plumber cost?

It depends on the job and how bad the problem is. That is why the first step is a phone call. Describe the problem and get your free estimate on the phone, with upfront pricing.

Will I talk to a real person?

Yes, you will.

Do I need to fill out a form?

No forms and no waiting on emailed quotes. One phone call is all it takes.

Can I get help at night or on a weekend?

We have plumbers ready to help families in the community 24/7, but moment-to-moment availability depends on demand. Call to find out how soon we can service your home.

Should I wait to call?

You already know that plumbing problems don't go away on their own. And waiting just increases the risks to your house. Plumbers see this hesitation all the time. Instead of regretting not calling earlier, just make that 2-minute call now and get your free estimate.

People also ask

Can work in one apartment be done without shutting the other one off?

Only if there are isolation valves on each branch. Where a building was divided without adding them, the main has to close and both units go without water for the duration, which is worth knowing before scheduling anything.

What does an old cast iron stack in a converted house need?

An inspection of the joints and the horizontal runs. Cast iron waste stacks in houses that gained a second kitchen tend to be doing more work than they were sized for, and the failures show up as slow drains on the upper floor and damp at the base of the stack.

How cold does it get here in December?

The December average low is 13F, with November already averaging 21F overnight. That is a long enough cold stretch that a shared line in an unheated hallway has no chance to warm back up during the day.

Both apartments lost water at once. Does that point to the shared stack?

Usually yes. When one unit loses pressure the problem is normally in that unit's branch, and when both go at the same time the fault is upstream on the common riser or at the main into the building. Close the main shutoff and have the riser checked from the basement up.
