Common plumbing problems in Scranton
Hard water scale
Northeastern Pennsylvania has notably hard water. Scale buildup kills water heaters early and clogs fixtures throughout Scranton homes.
Aging pipes in coal-era homes
Many Scranton houses predate modern plumbing codes and still run on galvanized supply lines and cast-iron drains that corrode, leak, and back up.
Winter freeze bursts
Lackawanna County winters are long. Pipes in stone foundations, crawl spaces, and unheated additions are the classic burst-pipe locations.
