Plumbing help in 75243

75243 is the northern part of Lake Highlands and the neighborhoods along Forest Lane up to the Richardson city line, including the area around Dallas College Richland. With more than 31,000 homes, it is one of the largest zips in the city. Most homes were built between 1960 and 1999, about three-quarters are rentals, and apartment complexes from the 1970s and 1980s make up a large share.

What the homes in 75243 mean for plumbing

Calls here split between two kinds of housing. Apartment communities see water heater failures, shared drain backups and leaking supply valves. The single-family streets, many built in the 1970s and 1980s, are where slab leaks, aging water heaters and early plastic supply lines show up.

Some homes from the late 1970s through the mid-1990s were built with polybutylene supply pipe, a gray plastic line known for failing at its fittings. If your house is from that era and has had repeated leaks, check what the supply lines are made of.

Services that fit the homes in 75243

Common Questions

Questions from 75243 homeowners

How do I tell if my 75243 house has polybutylene pipes?

Polybutylene is usually gray, sometimes blue or black, and stamped PB. Look where the water line enters the house, near the water heater and under sinks. It was used in many homes built from the late 1970s to the mid-1990s.

Is polybutylene pipe dangerous?

It does not make water unsafe to drink, but it is known for sudden failures at fittings and joints, which can cause serious water damage. Many owners choose to replace it before a leak forces the decision.

Where is the main water shutoff on a typical Lake Highlands North house?

Most Dallas houses have a shutoff near the meter at the street, and many also have a house valve near the water heater or where the line enters the home. Find both before you need them.
