Some towns see more freeze-related water damage than others. Based on our call volume and freeze risk data, here are the top areas where frozen pipes tend to cause the most winter emergencies:

1. Dedham (02026)

Historic homes + cold basements = high risk. Many properties still have older, uninsulated plumbing.

2. Norwood (02062)

Frequent power outages during storms leave heating systems vulnerable, increasing burst pipe incidents.

3. Needham (02492)

Large homes with expansive plumbing systems often have crawlspaces and additions that aren’t well insulated.

4. West Roxbury (02132)

Older multifamily properties see recurring winter pipe breaks, especially in shared walls and ceilings.

5. Newton (02458–02466)

High-end homes with complex mechanicals see expensive water damage from pipe freezes every winter.

Prevention Tips for All Zip Codes

• Insulate exposed plumbing in basements, garages, attics
• Keep cabinet doors open under sinks during extreme cold
• Let faucets drip during deep freezes
• Install a smart water leak sensor
