IS Plumbing is a licensed plumber serving Boston, MA — West Roxbury, Roslindale, Jamaica Plain, Hyde Park, Dorchester, Brighton and the surrounding neighborhoods — with plumbing, water heaters, boilers, gas fitting and drain work in homes, condos and multi-families.
Boston's housing stock is some of the oldest we work on — triple-deckers with shared supply lines, brownstone condos with tight mechanical rooms, and single-families in West Roxbury and Rozzie still running galvanized pipe and cast-iron drains. We handle leak repair, repiping, water heater and boiler replacement, gas fitting and drain clearing — every job pulled under the correct City of Boston (ISD) permits and inspected, with respect for your building and neighbors.
Boston's water arrives from the Quabbin and Wachusett reservoirs through the MWRA and is distributed by the Boston Water and Sewer Commission, which also owns the sewer mains — but the service line to your house and the lateral to the street are the owner's side, and in this housing stock that can still mean lead or galvanized water services and root-invaded clay drains. We replace the private side and coordinate with BWSC where the street side is involved.
Every neighborhood permits through the same place: Boston's Inspectional Services Department. We file electronically and meet the inspector on site, from West Roxbury to Dorchester. The two jobs we quote most in the city are the triple-decker heater bank — three aging tanks replaced or consolidated — and the condo-conversion split: separated shutoffs, per-unit water heaters and gas piping that passes ISD the first time.
"We hired IS Plumbing to replace a number of fixtures and toilets. Very professional crew and a great job. Highly recommend them for all your plumbing needs."
"Great experience — they installed an automatic smart water shut-off, did a full boiler maintenance with warranty parts, and explained everything clearly."
"IS Plumbing is by far the best plumbing company I've ever used. I've owned my home about 35 years and tried several plumbers around MetroWest — these guys are on another level."
