Boiling Springs Plumbing Services
Boiling Springs is about a 20-minute drive from the Camp Hill dispatch address, so a call from here is a longer run than most on the network. That is worth knowing before you call, and so is the fact that the name on your mail is not the name of the government that handles your water.
Give dispatch the street and ZIP before anything else. After that, a plumber serving your area takes the problem, and the notes below cover who answers for the water, the sewer and the permit.

Boiling Springs is a place name; South Middleton Township is the government
Boiling Springs is a census-designated place inside South Middleton Township, Cumberland County. It is not a legal municipality, so there is no Boiling Springs borough hall. Permits, ordinances and inspections run through the township, whose office is at 520 Park Drive, (717) 258-5324. The USPS name for ZIP 17007 is Boiling Springs, and the township name is the one to use when asking about jurisdiction.
Mount Holly Springs sits in the same school district but is a separate borough with its own authority, so a Mount Holly Springs address is not a Boiling Springs address. Which code enforcement agency reviews plumbing permits was not found, so ask the township office who handles them.
| Question | First call | Phone |
|---|---|---|
| Permits and ordinances | South Middleton Township office, 520 Park Drive | (717) 258-5324 |
| Water or sewer service problems | Township Municipal Authority, 345 Lear Lane | (717) 258-6476 |
| Work inside the house | The plumber dispatch assigns | Dispatch line |
Water and sewer come from a township authority
The South Middleton Township Municipal Authority handles water and sewer for the area. Its water system is listed as groundwater, serving roughly ten thousand people. That makes it a locally run system and not a regulated private utility, so outages and pressure problems at the street go to the authority and not to a company call center.
No current water quality report was found, so this page gives no hardness figure. A test at your own tap tells you what your plumbing actually sees, and the authority can say where its report is posted. The sewer lateral ownership rule was not found either, so ask the authority when a drain problem reaches the main.
Which agency reviews plumbing permits for the township was not found, so ask the township office at (717) 258-5324 first.

Permits for bigger plumbing jobs
Under the state code, a repipe or a relocated drain line needs a permit, while patching a leak or swapping a fixture one for one does not. No exemption is written for water heaters, so ask the township before a heater is replaced. A repipe is the one to assume needs a permit. For what to ask on a replacement, see choosing a replacement tank.
Garbage disposals, faucets and wet floors
Garbage disposal installation is a common call, especially when a new sink goes in; the disposal, the dishwasher hose and the drain all have to line up, and kitchen disposal help walks through it. A dripping faucet, a running toilet or a stiff shutoff is a one-part repair in most cases, described under fixture repair options.
Water damage restoration in Boiling Springs follows a leak or a burst pipe: the crew removes standing water and dries the structure, as cleanup after a burst pipe explains. Late calls are taken as well, and the call explained shows what happens when the line is answered.
