Plumbing & Heating for Greece, NY Homes

Greece is Monroe County's most populous town, and most of it was built in one great post-war wave: streets of 1950s and 1960s ranches and raised ranches stretching from the Ridge Road corridor up toward the lakeshore. That housing era carries a signature set of issues — original galvanized and early copper supply lines, sewer laterals well into their second half-century, and water heaters and furnaces that work hard every single winter.

Up against Lake Ontario, Greece takes the full force of lake-effect weather, and low ground near the shore makes sump pumps and drainage a bigger part of life here than in the hillier suburbs to the south. We're based on East Ridge Road on the city's east side, and Route 104 makes the run to Greece a straight shot in most conditions.
