Our Piedmont Triad Coverage Area

Reservoirs and River Supply

Greensboro draws from Lake Townsend and Lake Brandt, High Point from Oak Hollow Lake, and Winston-Salem from Salem Lake and the Yadkin River. Check your bill for your provider and its notices.

Furniture, Textile and Tobacco Neighborhoods

Mill villages and downtown houses from the 1900s through the 1950s often have galvanized supply, cast iron drains and clay laterals, and old additions mix pipe materials.

Polybutylene in 1980s Subdivisions

Homes built from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s may still have polybutylene lines. A written inspection tells you what is in the walls.

Rentals and Student Housing

Rentals near the universities and old industrial districts often go years between updates. Test shutoffs and heaters between tenants and keep a record of repairs.

Frequently Asked Questions — Piedmont Triad Plumbing

Who offers emergency plumbing in the Piedmont Triad?

LocalPlumber.us connects you with vetted, insured local plumbers around the clock. Shut off the main valve if water is flowing, call, and give your ZIP code when prompted.

Where does Greensboro’s water come from?

Lake Townsend and Lake Brandt. Your bill and annual report confirm the details.

Do older Triad homes have old pipe?

Many from the early twentieth century do. A written inspection with a camera run shows what remains.

Is water in this area hard?

Most Piedmont and mountain supplies are soft and slightly acidic, so pitted copper and pinhole leaks matter more than scale. Check your provider’s water quality report for the numbers.

How do I protect pipes in a North Carolina cold snap?

Insulate pipes in crawlspaces, garages and exterior walls, disconnect hoses, open cabinet doors on the coldest nights and know where the main shutoff is.

What should renters do about a leak?

Report it to the landlord in writing, keep a copy and shut off the fixture stop if water is flowing.
