For the leak, the no-heat morning, the roof that started dripping at 9pm: call (877) 454-8068. The desk is open 7am–10pm ET, every day. Tell us what is happening and where.

A university town with a lower ownership rate than most suburbs of its size, Chapel Hill has a median build year of 1988 and about 35 percent of homes predating 1980. Five ZIP codes cover roughly 64,000 people, and ownership is just under half. Humid summers, storm season, and the occasional freeze each bring their own calls, from cooling and moisture problems to split hose bibs. Pools are common enough that equipment repair is a regular category rather than a rare one.

What that means for a call

Occasional freezes are easy to underestimate. In Chapel Hill, where the median home was built in 1988 and about 35% predate 1980, a quick overnight dip can catch an exterior hose bib, an unheated crawlspace, or a pool line. Find the shutoff before the forecast turns.

Local watch-outs

  • A hard freeze is occasional here, which is exactly when exposed pipes catch people out. Find the main shutoff now, before you need it.
  • Keep gutters and downspouts clear before storm season. If water reaches an outlet or a panel, stop and call an electrician rather than resetting the breaker.
  • Pool pumps and heaters work harder in a long hot season. Know the breaker and the shutoff before a problem, and keep the equipment pad clear.
