If you live in a pre-war colonial in North Stamford, a 1920s Tudor in Westover, or a mid-century split in Springdale, you already know older homes have character you can’t buy at the store. Thick trim, real wood, quirky layouts—and behind those walls, a plumbing system that’s probably seen a few eras come and go. That history is part of the charm… and part of the maintenance.

You know that little plink… plink… plink at 2 a.m.? It’s easy to shrug off. Life is busy, the sink still “works,” and a slow drip doesn’t feel like an emergency.
