Lead service lines

The water utility has a lead service line replacement program for older homes.

03

Spring thaw

Snowmelt and rain test sump pumps.

04

Mississippi River bluffs

Saint Paul's river bluffs and hills create steep lots with long sewer laterals.

05

Older housing stock

Many homes date from the early 1900s, with cast-iron drains and older supply lines.

06

Frozen water services

Saint Paul Regional Water Services advises residents on preventing frozen water service lines during extreme cold.

Basement backups

Older homes often have basement floor drains connected directly to the main line, so a blockage outside shows up first in the basement during heavy use or storms. Backwater valves and regular main-line cleaning help in neighborhoods with mature trees.
