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.

Seven ZIP codes and a 1970s building boom define Schaumburg's housing. The median home was built in 1979, and about 53 percent of the stock predates 1980, so the city's core is late-1960s and 1970s subdivision housing. Basements are common, and hard freezes are the main seasonal pressure, especially for pipes in exterior walls and unheated spaces. Hail is a recurring test for roofs and gutters, and hard water is a steady wear item for heaters and fixtures. Housing condition varies from block to block within the same era.

What that means for a call

The median home in Schaumburg dates to 1979, and about 53% of the stock predates 1980. The bigger local pressure is the freeze: exterior walls, unheated crawlspaces, and hose bibs are the first places a pipe gives way. Know where the main shutoff is before the temperature drops.

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.
