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.

Older in-town houses and capes sit alongside 1970s and 1980s subdivisions in Shelton, where the median build year is 1977 and about half the homes predate 1980. Long winters and nor'easters split pipes in exterior walls and unheated porches, and ice dams form on older roofs. Basements are common and often damp in spring, and storm season adds wind-driven rain at roof edges and windows. About 43,000 residents in a single ZIP code in Fairfield County, and roughly three in four homes are owner-occupied.

What that means for a call

The median home in Shelton dates to 1977, and about 54% 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.
  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Clear snow from vents, gutters, and the areas around exterior equipment. Do not bury a gas meter, and keep the furnace exhaust and intake clear.
