Plumbing in Dallas: what to know
Dallas's expansive clay soils shift slab foundations and crack under-slab pipes, and the February 2021 freeze burst pipes across the city.
Hard freezes are infrequent in Dallas, so many homes have pipes in attics, crawl spaces and exterior walls with little insulation. When a rare cold snap does arrive, burst pipes spike across the area within a day or two.
Much of Dallas has hard water. Scale builds up in water heaters and fixtures over time, which shows up as popping noises in the tank, weak shower flow and crusty aerators.
Dallas County and Texas housing: Mostly slab-on-grade homes on expansive clay soils, where foundation movement cracks pipes under the slab.
