Understanding Chelsea's Unique Plumbing Needs

- Well water systems — Most Chelsea properties rely on private wells with submersible pumps, pressure tanks, and water treatment systems that require specialized knowledge to install, maintain, and repair
- Septic systems — Private septic tanks and weeping beds are standard in Chelsea, requiring plumbers who understand proper connections and can identify potential issues
- Cottages and seasonal properties — Many Chelsea properties are cottages that need seasonal winterization and spring opening services to prevent freeze damage
- Custom-built homes — Chelsea's unique properties often feature non-standard plumbing layouts requiring creative problem-solving and adaptable expertise
- Forested properties — Tree root intrusion into drain lines is common in Chelsea's wooded lots, requiring camera inspection and specialized clearing techniques
