Hudson homeowners call IS Plumbing for the full range of licensed work: tired supply lines in the mill-era blocks off Main Street, water heater swaps near Forest Avenue, gas piping and boiler service out toward Lake Boon. Our Millbury shop is a short run up I-290 and Route 85, so Hudson gets quick scheduling, permitted work, and one number for everything: +1 (774) 486-0909.
Hudson grew up around its shoe and woolen mills on the Assabet, and the housing shows it: tight worker two-families and Victorians within walking distance of the rotary, then rings of postwar capes and newer subdivisions spreading toward the Berlin and Stow lines. Downtown buildings hide original cast-iron stacks and undersized branch lines behind renovated storefront apartments, while the newer colonials off Route 85 are reaching first-water-heater and first-boiler age. We repipe the old stock, swap the aging equipment, run gas lines for stoves and generators, and camera-inspect stubborn drains anywhere in town.
Hudson supplies its own town water from local groundwater wells, and the dense downtown blocks tie into municipal sewer, while plenty of outlying streets toward Stow and Bolton still rely on septic systems. Groundwater in this part of MetroWest tends to run mineral-heavy, so we field regular calls about scale buildup in water heaters and iron staining at fixtures.
Plumbing and gas jobs here get filed with the Hudson Building Department before work starts, and the inspection is part of our price, not an extra. A steady job type in town is opening up mill-era two-families — replacing galvanized branches and cast-iron stacks floor by floor so tenants upstairs keep water while we work downstairs.
Based in Millbury, MA, we cover all of Hudson and the surrounding towns. Don't see your street? Call +1 (774) 486-0909 and ask.
Millbury to downtown Hudson is a straightforward run up I-290 and Route 85, so most calls fit into same-day routes, and an active leak or a dead heating system gets bumped to the front of the line any hour.
Yes — the worker housing near Main Street and the rotary often still carries galvanized steel branches. We replace them in stages so one unit keeps water while the other is opened up, then patch and leave the place clean.
We do. Every job we take in town is filed with the Hudson Building Department, and we meet the inspector ourselves so you never chase paperwork or sign-offs.
Often, yes. The newer colonials off Route 85 usually have the gas capacity for a Navien or Rinnai wall unit; in older downtown homes we check meter and vent routing first and tell you honestly if a tank makes more sense.
We can. Older streets around Main Street mix clay and cast-iron laterals that catch roots and grease; a camera down the line shows exactly what and where before anyone talks about digging.
From our shop in Millbury, MA we serve Hudson and the surrounding towns across the Worcester area, MetroWest and Greater Boston. Don't see your town listed? Call and ask.
