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.

Cottage Grove grew in waves, and the median build year of 1990 reflects it: about a third of homes predate 1980, with 1990s and 2000s subdivisions making up much of the rest. Long, hard winters are the main test, with frozen and split pipes, ice dams, and snow load on roofs. Basements are common, and spring thaw sends water at foundations and floor drains. Hail and wind add roof and gutter damage. About 43,000 residents in a single ZIP code in Washington County, and nearly nine in ten homes owner-occupied.

What that means for a call

Hard freezes and older housing are a difficult combination. In Cottage Grove, where the median home was built in 1990 and about 37% predate 1980, a winter call often starts with a pipe on an exterior wall or a shutoff that has not moved in years.

Local watch-outs

  • Know where the main water shutoff is before a pipe freezes. During a deep freeze, open the cabinet doors under sinks on exterior walls and let a faucet trickle.
  • After hail, check the roof, gutters, and skylights from the ground before climbing up. Note the date and take photos before anything is repaired.
  • Check the basement or crawlspace after heavy rain. Most seepage starts at a wall joint, a window well, or a downspout that dumps too close to the foundation.
  • Hard water shortens the life of water heaters, faucets, and shower valves. Regular descaling or a softener can reduce the scale, but it will not fix a failed part.
