Water damage risks in Eastchester
Co-ops and apartment buildings
Eastchester and its villages have many co-op and apartment buildings. Leaks from the unit above, from risers and from radiators are among the most common calls. Your proprietary lease usually divides responsibility between the co-op and the shareholder.
Older single-family homes
Many homes date from the 1920s to the 1950s, with plaster, hardwood and finished basements. Burst pipes in exterior walls and ice dams are typical winter problems.
Heavy rain
Low areas near the Hutchinson and Bronx rivers and their tributaries can flood in intense rain, and storm drains back up into basements during the heaviest downpours.
Water damage in Eastchester right now? Do this first
Shut off the water
In most Westchester homes, the main valve is in the basement where the water line comes in, next to the meter. In apartments, co-ops and condos, call the super or managing agent, who can shut off the riser. On a private well, turn off the well pump at its breaker.
Stay safe around electricity
Do not walk through water near outlets, appliances or the panel. Turn off power at the breaker only from a dry spot.
If drains are backing up
Most of southern and central Westchester is sewered, while many northern Westchester homes use septic systems. For a sewer backup, stop using water and call a plumber and your city, town or village. For septic, call a septic service company.
