Repairs in Imperial & Findlay
The 15126 ZIP is mailed as Imperial, but most of the land in it belongs to Findlay Township, with a portion in North Fayette. It sits close to Pittsburgh International Airport, along U.S. Route 30 and Route 576, and its outer edges brush the Beaver and Washington county lines.
Imperial itself is not a borough or a township. It is an unincorporated community, a census-designated place split between Findlay and North Fayette, and both townships are run by boards of supervisors. That means your township building, permits and road crews depend on which side of the line your house is on, even though the mailing address is the same.
The housing shows Imperial's history. The village started around 1879 as a mining town of the Imperial Coal Company, first called Montour City, and some older houses near its center date from those early decades. Around it, Findlay is a large township with plenty of open land, and newer subdivisions, townhouses and homes on acreage have filled in near the main roads.
Garage freezers on Findlay lots
Homes in this part of Findlay often have room for a second refrigerator or a chest freezer in the garage. Before winter, check the unit's manual for its rated room temperature. Many refrigerators lose freezer performance when an unheated garage falls below the high 30s or 40s, while a garage-ready model or a chest freezer is designed to cope. A cheap thermometer in the garage settles the question.
Old village houses and new construction side by side
An older Imperial house may have a stone or block basement, a small kitchen and wiring updated in stages over the years, so an electric dryer or range circuit is worth a look when a problem seems electrical. The newer homes nearby are a contrast: open kitchens with built-in microwaves and wall ovens, French-door refrigerators with ice and water, and laundry rooms on the main floor where a leak can reach the ceiling below.
Trails, open land and private water
The Montour Trail runs through Imperial, with a connector branch heading toward the airport, and the trail follows the bed of the old Montour Railroad. That rail-and-mining past left a landscape of hills and hollows where some houses sit well off the road. Some properties out here may draw water from a private well; if yours does, sediment and hardness can clog inlet screens on washers, dishwashers and refrigerators sooner than on treated public water.
Ranges and cooking in newer kitchens
Kitchens in the subdivisions often have slide-in or dual-fuel ranges, separate cooktops on islands, or wall ovens stacked with a microwave. These are worth repairing in many cases because replacements must match cutouts and trim. We diagnose before quoting, and explain the price for your approval before any work starts.

Quick answers to what people ask most. If yours isn't here, bring it up on the phone or type it into the notes box when you book.
Something else on your mind?
Reach out with the brand, the symptom and a model number if you have one. Some questions we can answer on the spot; the rest a technician can check in person.
No. Imperial is a mailing name that covers parts of both Findlay and North Fayette townships, so plenty of North Fayette residents have an Imperial address. For booking, all that matters is the street address and ZIP 15126. Tell us about your driveway if it is long or steep.
It can. Private wells may carry sediment, iron or more hardness than treated supplies, which clog inlet valve screens and leave deposits on heating elements. A whole-house sediment filter helps, and so does flushing the water heater and cleaning washer inlet screens. If a machine fills slowly, those screens are a good first check.
