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.

The wet season is long and gentle, which is easy on pipes but hard on roofs, gutters, and anything that holds moisture. The median home was built in 1966, and about six in ten predate 1980. Moss, clogged downspouts, and damp crawl spaces are ordinary fall calls. Summers are mild enough that cooling was an afterthought for decades, though smoke from regional fires has made indoor air a bigger concern. Older houses here often have partial updates, so what is original depends on which owner got there first.

What that means for a call

In Portland, the median home dates to 1966, with about 63% built before 1980. The local climate adds its own pressure. The useful move is to describe what the house is doing now, not just the label on the trade.

Local watch-outs

  • During smoke events, keep HVAC filters clean and check exterior vents, soffits, and roof edges for places where embers or smoke can enter.
  • Older homes often have original shutoffs, wiring, and drain lines. Ask the pro to show you the failed part before approving a replacement.
