Two attached homes normally take separate service lines, so one can be scaled up or partly closed while the other still runs clear. A regulator that has given up shows as a change on every fixture at once rather than at one tap.

Timing separates them: seepage follows the weather and spreads along the footing, whereas a leaking line runs steadily whatever the sky is doing and stays close to its own path. Old row basements were rarely built dry to begin with, so the question is usually which of the two sources is making it worse.

Sometimes a blockage clears from one side alone, though a failed section of a common stack has to be reached at the failure, and that can be behind the wall of the other home. The wall between two attached homes is the constraint on almost every job of this kind, more than the pipe itself is.

It reads as dull gray metal with threaded joints and it holds a magnet, unlike copper, and the giveaway symptom is upstairs pressure that has quietly declined as the bore narrows. Mixed galvanized and copper in one house is normal here and tells you the work was done in stages rather than all at once.

The common culprits are a line inside a wall, a length under the basement slab, or the stretch between the meter and where the plumbing branches. A leak inside a party wall regularly surfaces on the neighboring side first, so a word with the household next door is worth having.
