Repairs in War Streets & Troy Hill
15212 holds most of the old North Side: the North Shore by the stadiums, Allegheny West, the Mexican War Streets in the Central Northside, Deutschtown (East Allegheny), Troy Hill and Spring Garden up the slopes, and Brighton Heights farther out along the Ohio.
15212 lies within the City of Pittsburgh; on our map it's grouped with The North Side.
Allegheny West and the War Streets are known for restored rowhouses; Troy Hill and Spring Garden have small worker houses on steep streets; Brighton Heights has roomier early-twentieth-century single-family homes.
Worth knowing in 15212
In a restored rowhouse the kitchen is often at the back of the ground floor with the laundry in the basement below, and the old walls leave little room behind the appliances. A photo of the space around the unit helps us plan the visit.
Houses divided into units
Many large houses in the central North Side have been split into apartments. A single building can hold several kitchens, a shared basement laundry, and water and gas lines that serve more than one unit.
Tell us which unit the appliance belongs to, who owns it and where the shutoffs are. That keeps a repair in one apartment from interrupting the others.
Low ground near the river
The flat streets of the central North Side are easier to drive and park on than the hills, but low ground is also where water collects. In a heavy summer downpour, basements near the river are the first to get wet, and older ones can take water up through a floor drain when the sewers are full.
If a washer, dryer or freezer has stood in even a few inches of water, keep it unplugged and mention that when you book. Soaked motors and wiring can run normally for a while before they give out.
Measure before you move anything
Rowhouse doors and stairways in the central North Side decide what can go in or out. Before a new appliance is bought, or an old one hauled up for a repair, measure the narrowest door and the tightest turn on the stairs.
Most of the time we fix the machine in place, and we'll tell you ahead of time if a repair would mean taking it out.
