What makes it distinct

Small, individual houses — unusual for this part of Paris

Butte-aux-Cailles largely escaped the high-rise redevelopment that shaped the rest of the 13th, keeping its small, low-rise houses on quiet cobbled streets instead. That means plumbing much more like an individual house than a shared apartment block — each with its own systems, generally original to the building.

Who calls us here

Homeowners in small, individual houses

Most calls here come from residents in these smaller houses, dealing with their own boiler and pipework rather than a shared building system — a different situation from the towers in Chinatown just nearby.

Good to know

A few things worth knowing about Butte-aux-Cailles

Individual, often original systems

Each house typically has its own hot water system, unlike the shared systems in nearby tower blocks.

Narrow streets that can affect access

Some of the cobbled streets here are narrow — worth mentioning if your building is tucked away.

Blocked drains in older individual houses

Original, narrower pipework in these small houses is a common source of blocked drains.

Leaks in older, individually plumbed houses

A leak here is usually isolated to one house rather than a shared building system.
