Old Pittsburgh houses have six specific problems.
Galvanised supply, cast iron stacks, clay laterals with roots, lead bends, a shared flue, and no cleanout. Knowing which one you have explains most of what a plumber will say to you, so it is written out rather than kept as leverage.

Same day for no water or an active leak, most weekdays. Two to four days for everything else. You will be given a real day rather than put on a list.
