Common plumbing problems in Lexington
Very hard limestone water
Lexington sits on limestone, so the water is exceptionally hard. Scale destroys water heaters and fixtures faster here than in most Kentucky cities, and softeners are near-standard.
Aging systems in historic districts
Chevy Chase and Ashland Park homes from the early 1900s often still have galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains at end of life.
Frozen pipes
Bluegrass winters bring hard freezes. Pipes in crawl spaces and unheated basements of older Lexington homes burst regularly each winter.
