Pre-1960 homes were plumbed with galvanized steel for water and cast iron for drains, and most now carry copper patches from later repairs. Corrosion and cracked drain stacks drive most emergencies in houses of this age. For 21229, that points first to galvanized water lines, cracked cast-iron drains and pinhole leaks in copper.

Rowhouses and townhouses make up 58% of homes in 21229. Row homes share party walls, so water from a burst pipe travels into the house next door, and in most row homes the water line enters through the front basement wall from the meter out front.

First steps for a burst pipe in a 21229 rowhouse

In a Baltimore rowhouse, the main shut-off valve is usually on the basement wall facing the street, where the water line comes in from the meter at the curb. The meter and valves in the curb vault are City equipment; call 311 when the water has to be shut off there.

Is a leak in 21229 your pipe or the utility’s?

The property owner is responsible for the service line from the water meter into the house; the Baltimore City Department of Public Works maintains the outdoor lines up to and including the meter. Report water running in the street, a leaking hydrant or a main break to Baltimore City 311 (call 311 or use the 311 app). A leak between the meter and your foundation, or anywhere inside, is a job for a plumber.
