Gastonia homes and their plumbing
Mill village and mid-century homes frequently have galvanized supply lines, cast iron or clay drains, and crawl spaces with exposed pipe. Many have had partial updates over the years, so it is common to find copper, galvanized and PEX joined in the same house. Permits are issued through Gaston County.
Crawl-space freezes
Older homes on open or poorly sealed crawl spaces are the most likely in the region to see frozen pipes in a cold snap.
Clay sewer laterals
Clay pipe with mortar joints is common in older neighborhoods and prone to root intrusion.
Galvanized supply lines
Mid-century Gastonia homes frequently still have galvanized steel supply pipe. As it corrodes internally, pressure drops, hot water turns rusty and leaks start at threaded joints. Spot repairs rarely last because the whole run is aging together.
