Homes

A mix of eras

Census estimates put the median Manchester home at 1975. About 26% were built before 1940 and about 20% in 2000 or later, and about 68% are detached houses. A house from the 1920s and one from the 2000s clog for different reasons: old pipe scale and roots in one, wipes and grease in the other. Tell the plumber the age of your house when you call.

Rain and the low spots

Before the Plumber Arrives in Manchester

Skip the chemical drain cleaner. It can splash back and it can't clear a main line.

  • Stop running water if more than one drain is backing up.
  • Don't pour chemical cleaner into standing water. It can splash back when the plumber opens the line.
  • If you know where the cleanout is, clear the area around it.
  • Keep children and pets away from dirty water.
