About Glendale and Poplar Grove
Glendale and Poplar Grove run along the Jordan River between I-15 and Redwood Road, south of North Temple.

The cold is the same story across the valley. Salt Lake City International Airport averaged 16.4 nights a year at 20°F or colder over 2016-2025, nearly all from December through February, and the benches run colder than the airport. Pipes in exterior walls and garages go first.

Questions
Do you cover all of Glendale and Poplar Grove?
Yes, including ZIP 84104. Your callback company double-checks that they cover your address.
How fast can someone come out?
It depends on the day and how many calls come in after a cold snap or a storm. Say in your request if water is still coming in, or if anyone at home has asthma or a weak immune system. The company will tell you when they can come.
Do I get a price first?
Ask for a written scope and price before work starts. With active water, drying often starts on the first visit; ask what the first day will cost and how drying is billed before you sign.
