Washington's unique plumbing challenges
About 110 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out
The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Houston
First frost typically lands around October 28
Seasonal timing
With first frost typically arriving around Oct 28, the unheated cavities between attached homes cool ahead of the rooms on either side.

The property owner normally owns the lateral from the building wall out to the public main, including the length that runs under the pavement, while the main itself belongs to the borough or the authority. Records at the borough office serving Washington will say which arrangement your address actually has, and reading them beats guessing from what the basement looks like.
Start with the water authority rather than with the pipe: they hold an inventory of service line materials by address and it is a matter of record. Where two attached homes were built together the service lines often date from the same year, so a neighbor's result is a strong hint about yours without being proof.
Often not, or not completely: a cleanout on your own side may clear a soft blockage, but a corroded or cracked length of a stack serving both halves has to be opened where the damage sits. Sorting the access question with the other household before the work starts usually saves a second visit.
There is no fixed figure: cast iron rusts inward, so the outside stays convincing long after the wall of the pipe has gone thin, particularly at the joints. Replacing a serving section while the wall is already open costs less disruption than coming back for it later.
