Protect Your Home: Tips from Middlesex Water Company

As winter settles in, Middlesex Water Company, Avalon’s contracted water/sewer/stormwater manager, reminds property owners of the importance of preventing frozen water pipes.

These valves are typically located inside your property or in crawl spaces. Stay proactive and protect your home from potential water damage. READ MORE
