Plumbing conditions in New York
New York State has cold, snowy winters, including heavy lake-effect snow upstate, and humid summers.
New York City is dominated by older multi-family buildings, while upstate homes typically have basements and many rural properties use wells.
Hard freezes are a regular part of winter in New York, so pipes in exterior walls, garages, crawl spaces and attics need protection every year, and outdoor faucets and sprinkler lines must be drained before the first freeze.

Common plumbing problems in New York
Frozen and burst pipes
Cold snaps in New York freeze pipes in exterior walls, crawl spaces and garages. A frozen line often splits and leaks only after it thaws, so shut off the main if you see water.
Frozen pipe thawing →Aging pipes in older homes
Older homes in New York often still have galvanized supply pipe, cast-iron drains or clay sewer laterals, which corrode, crack and collect roots with age.
Repiping →Basement backups and sump pumps
Many New York homes have basements, where the floor drain is the first place a sewer backup shows up and a sump pump is the main defense against groundwater.
Sump pump service →Private wells and septic systems
Many rural New York homes rely on private wells and septic systems. Pressure tanks, well pumps and septic lines need a plumber familiar with those systems.
