A garage tank is quicker than a line behind a finished wall.

Bloomingdale addresses

Why the mailing name can send you to the wrong place

Two ZIP codes, two other town names

Bloomingdale is an unincorporated census-designated place in east-central Hillsborough County, about 16 miles southeast of downtown Tampa. The 2020 census counted 22,947 people and 8,366 housing units, 3.6 percent of them vacant. Its ZIP codes are 33511, where the mailing address says Brandon, and 33596, where it says Valrico. Neighboring places are Brandon to the north, Valrico to the northeast, FishHawk to the southeast and Riverview to the southwest.

That mailing practice is why an online lookup can send you to the wrong page. A utility, a sewer map or a county notice is tied to your service address, not to the mailing city. When you call about a plumber in Bloomingdale, FL, give the street name and number. If you are looking up a water report, enter the full address, not the town.

Why the town name can mislead

From Wikipedia’s description of Bloomingdale and the County’s address lookup.
What you use	What it can mislead	Better practice
Mailing city on a bill	Says Brandon or Valrico	Use the service address
ZIP code lookup	May match several systems	Use the street address
Neighbor’s advice	The next street may differ	Check your own bill
A listing for Brandon or Valrico	May not cover Bloomingdale streets	Ask the utility directly

Address mix-ups

A short guide for the call

Have your service address, the nearest cross street and your water bill nearby. If you rent, ask the landlord for the account name. Mention if you are near a boundary with Brandon, Valrico or Riverview, because those places have their own pages: Brandon, Valrico and Riverview.

Water in Bloomingdale

A regional blend, and what is not known

What the County reports cover

Hillsborough County Water Resources operates eleven community public drinking water systems, each with its own report, and residents find theirs by entering an address in the County’s interactive map. The County’s 2025 South-Central and Northwest reports say most customers receive water from the regional supply system, Tampa Bay Water. Its 2025 blend was 63.1 percent groundwater, 30.5 percent river water and 6.4 percent desalinated seawater. The County’s own water also relies on a Lithia Water Treatment Plant, listed as a potable water facility.

Which system serves a given street, whether a home is on County water, a private well or another provider, and how hard the water is all depend on the address. For a hardness number, call the provider named on your bill or look for the mineral section of its yearly water report. Your water bill also names your provider.

What depends on your street

From the County’s water quality pages and Tampa Bay Water.
Question	Answer on this page	Where to get it
Who supplies my street?	Depends on the address	Your bill, or the County’s address map
Is my water hard?	Depends on the supply	The utility, or a home test
Is any home groundwater-only?	Depends on the address	The utility
Do I have a private well?	Depends on the address	Look for a casing and tank

Your address

Scale, taste and treatment

Until you have a hardness figure for your address, use your fixtures. White crust on aerators, a rumbling heater or spotted glassware suggest minerals. The hard water guide explains what to look for. For treatment see water softener installation and water filtration. A test strip or the utility gives you the number before you spend.

Test before you buy

Treatment equipment is sized to your water. Without a number from the utility or a test, any recommendation is a guess.

Drains and sewer

Sewer or septic: it depends on your parcel

What applies to your parcel

The County’s South-Central wastewater service area lists Apollo Beach, Brandon, Gibsonton, Riverview, Ruskin, Seffner, Sun City, Valrico and Wimauma, served by three treatment plants: South County Regional, Valrico and Falkenburg. Bloomingdale is not on that list, and this page does not infer its sewer status either way. A County study identified many single-family parcels inside its Urban Service Area that are not on sewer. The County’s septic-to-sewer conversions name Gibsonton, Palm River, Ruskin, Wimauma and the University Area. Bloomingdale is not named.

If you do not know whether your home has sewer or septic, ask the County. For a clog, clogged drain, drain cleaning and hydro jetting apply. For a repeat backup, sewer camera inspection and sewer line repair are next.

Irrigation

Reclaimed water, sprinklers and backflow

Reclaimed water is not the same as the tap

County reclaimed water is treated wastewater used for irrigation. The County says availability is case-by-case and limited to certain areas, and it has a phone line and an email address for address checks. In May 2024 it paused reclaimed service in a south-county area because of a plant problem, and drinking water was unaffected. Service returned a few days later.

If you have a reclaimed connection, keep it apart from the house plumbing. If you have sprinklers on the potable supply, a backflow device may be involved. Backflow testing explains the device and the test. A leak in an irrigation line can run unseen, and leak detection finds it. Water line repair covers the supply side.

Short answers

From County statements in 2024.
Question	Answer
Is reclaimed water safe to drink?	No. It is for irrigation only.
Can any address get it?	No. The County decides case-by-case.
Can it be paused?	Yes. It was, for a south-county area, in May 2024.
Does a pause affect tap water?	The County said drinking water was unaffected.

Reclaimed water

After a main break

What to do when a boil-water notice is issued

Follow the County first

A main break can drop pressure and lead to a boil-water notice. The County publishes those notices, and its instructions override anything here. In general, boil water as instructed before drinking, brushing teeth or making ice. After the notice lifts, run cold taps for a few minutes, flush toilets, and replace water filter cartridges if the maker advises. If a heater tank went through a pressure loss, check for drips. The low water pressure page covers pressure that does not recover.

Steps

Read the County noticeIt names the area and the steps.
Boil as directedNot just heat. Follow the time stated.
Run taps after it liftsClear stale water from the lines.
Check the heaterLook for drips after pressure swings.

Questions

Questions from Bloomingdale callers

Why does my Bloomingdale mail say Brandon or Valrico?

Bloomingdale has two ZIP codes, 33511 and 33596, whose mailing names are Brandon and Valrico. Use your street address for any utility or plumbing lookup, not the mailing town.

Who supplies water in Bloomingdale?

The answer changes from street to street. Hillsborough County has eleven systems and an address lookup. Check your bill or ask the County.

Is Bloomingdale water hard?

Hardness depends on the supply serving your street. Ask the utility, read the hardness line in its annual water quality report, or use a home test.

Is Bloomingdale on sewer or septic?

It varies by parcel. Bloomingdale is not on the County’s South-Central wastewater list or its septic conversion list. Ask the County about your parcel.

Is reclaimed water available in Bloomingdale?

The County says availability is case-by-case and limited to certain areas. Availability varies by street. Email or call the County to check an address.

Can a plumber in Bloomingdale, FL arrive today?

Same-day service is available. State your street, describe the trouble and ask what is open today. A leak that is spreading or a backup goes first.

What does plumbing cost in Bloomingdale?

This page gives no prices. The price moves with the job, the access, who owns the pipe and any hidden damage. Ask about pricing when you call.

How can I prepare for a price conversation?

Write down what failed, where, how long and what you did. Photos help. Ask about pricing when you call and ask what the work includes.

There is a boil-water notice. Can I still call?

Yes. Follow the County notice for drinking water. A plumber can help with a failed pipe, a heater or a fixture, but the notice itself comes from the County.

My yard is wet and the sprinklers are off. What now?

Close the irrigation valve if you can find it, and call for leak detection. A line break can run unseen and raise your bill.

Sewage is coming up in my floor drain. What do I do?

Do not run water, keep people and pets away from the floor drain and avoid touching the sewage. Open a window for the smell, then call.

Does the Lithia Water Treatment Plant serve Bloomingdale?

The County lists a Lithia Water Treatment Plant as one of its potable water facilities. Which streets it serves depends on the address, so ask the County about your address.
