Greenfield's position as an inner-ring Milwaukee suburb means its housing stock carries the full weight of mid-20th-century construction — and the plumbing emergencies that come with it. When a pipe bursts, a drain backs up, or a water heater fails at midnight, Burkhardt Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electric is available 24/7 to respond.
Much of Greenfield was built out between the late 1940s and the early 1970s — ranch homes, bungalows, and split-levels lining streets off S. 27th Street, Layton Avenue, and W. Cold Spring Road. Homes of that era commonly used galvanized steel supply lines that corrode from the inside out over decades, eventually failing — sometimes catastrophically. Cast-iron drain stacks in these homes have served for 50-plus years and are aging into failure territory: they crack, they offset at joints, and they suffer root intrusion from the mature trees throughout Greenfield's residential streets.
The denser eastern neighborhoods near the Milwaukee border share characteristics with the city itself: compact lots, aging infrastructure, and limited crawl space access that can complicate emergency plumbing repairs. Our plumbers are experienced in exactly these conditions — working in confined spaces, diagnosing failures in complex aging systems, and making effective repairs on the first visit.
Common emergency calls from Greenfield include burst galvanized supply lines at aging joint connections, sewer backups from root-infiltrated laterals, frozen pipes during January cold snaps when overnight lows drop below zero, and water heater failures in homes where the unit is well past its service life. We respond 24/7 with fully-stocked trucks and all the tools needed to locate and repair on the first visit.

How do I know if my pipes are galvanized in my Greenfield home?
Galvanized pipes are grey or silver-colored metal, often with visible threading at connections. If your home was built before 1970 and the supply lines have not been replaced, there is a good chance they are galvanized. A Burkhardt plumber can assess your system during any service visit.
Is a sewer backup a plumbing emergency?
Yes. A sewer backup can expose your household to raw sewage and cause significant structural damage to floors and walls. Call Burkhardt at 414-206-3049 immediately. Stop using all water fixtures until the backup is cleared.
