Veolia Water and Houses Old and New in Rahway
Veolia, formerly known as SUEZ, supplies Rahway's water. The City Council has heard a presentation on a possible sale of the water utility, so check the name on your latest bill before calling about a broken main or a drop in pressure across the neighborhood. Repairs of that kind belong to the utility. Leaks, noisy pipes and weak pressure at one fixture are inside the house and a plumbing job.
The city's housing runs from old to fairly recent. Nearly half of it predates 1960, by Census estimates, yet more than a third went up in 1980 or later. Electricity heats nearly one occupied home in five, and gas heats most of the rest, about 71 percent. So one house may need galvanized pipe replaced while the next needs a heat pump serviced. Both kinds of work are done by Vanguard's own technicians, never handed off to a subcontractor.
