Plumbing & heating in East Providence

East Providence covers a wider spread of housing than its neighbours, from the older streets in Rumford to the post-war building further south in Riverside. The plumbing tracks the era pretty faithfully.

In the mid-century housing the recurring job is a water heater and a supply system that went in at the same time and are now reaching the end together. It is worth doing them as one visit rather than two.

Closer to the water, exposed pipe in crawl spaces and unheated additions is the thing that catches people out in a cold snap.
