Repairs in Shadyside
15232 is Shadyside: the shops and restaurants of Walnut Street, UPMC Shadyside hospital, and block after block of big late-nineteenth and early-twentieth-century houses, a good share of them now divided into apartments.
These are City of Pittsburgh neighborhoods, and we come out to every street in 15232.
Many of the large houses were split into flats, so one building can hold three or four kitchens and a laundry shared downstairs. Smaller brick apartment buildings and a few mid-rises fill in between them.
A local note for 15232
On-street parking is tight, and some blocks are permit-only. If you have a driveway, a garage off the alley or a visitor space, say so in the booking, so the technician isn't circling the block with a part in hand.
Victorian houses, modern appliances
The big old houses of Shadyside were built for coal stoves and iceboxes. Every appliance in them now sits on gas piping, water lines and wiring that were added later, often in several rounds.
When something fails, we look at the connection as well as the machine: a gas valve, a supply line, an outlet. If the fault is in the house rather than the appliance, you'll hear that from us.
Cold snaps and water lines
During a hard freeze in Shadyside, water lines that run along an outside wall or through an unheated space can freeze. The refrigerator's ice maker line and the washer's supply hoses are the usual victims.
If the ice maker and dispenser quit together on a frigid morning, or the washer fills slowly, a frozen line is the first thing to rule out. Let the space warm up slowly and check for leaks once the water moves again.
Apartment buildings and management
In apartment buildings in Shadyside, the appliances usually belong to the owner, and management may already have a repair arrangement. Check before you book, so you're not paying for work the lease covers.
When management does ask us to come, a manager can okay the repair by phone or email while we set the time with the tenant.
