People also ask
Yours, from the foundation out to the main. Houses of the same era near East Berlin tend to have the same clay lateral and the same recurring problem with it. The sewer authority can confirm where their responsibility begins.
Ask your water system for its service-line inventory record, which is public. Lead and galvanised lines show up mostly in the older housing, and plenty of that stock sits between here and East Berlin. A plumber can also identify the material where the pipe comes through the basement wall.
That's usually galvanised steel, common in houses from the first half of the last century. It corrodes from the inside, so pressure drops slowly over years until a fixture at the far end barely runs. A plumber can tell you whether it's worth replacing a section or the whole run.
Only in the cold corners, usually. Most basements stay above freezing from ground heat and the boiler, but the bay nearest an outside door or a coal chute opening is a different story. That's where a line splits on a night near 23F.
