Between the Neponset River and the Blue Hills, Milton's housing runs old, solid and worth maintaining well. IS Plumbing provides licensed plumbing, heating, gas fitting and drain service across Milton Village, East Milton Square, Milton Hill and Brush Hill — from a leaking radiator valve to a complete heating replacement, handled by a Master Plumber and permitted with the town. Call +1 (774) 486-0909.
Milton's streets read like a survey of pre-war New England housing: shingled Victorians and grand colonials on Milton Hill, brick and clapboard capes around East Milton Square, and larger properties out toward Brush Hill and the Blue Hills. Many still heat with steam or converted hot water, drain through original clay laterals under mature street trees, and carry plumbing patched by generations of owners. Our work here leans accordingly: boiler service and replacement, radiator repairs, root-bound sewer laterals diagnosed by camera, gas piping for kitchens and generators, and careful repipes that respect plaster walls.
Milton takes its drinking water from the MWRA — Quabbin and Wachusett supply delivered through town mains — and sends its sewage to the MWRA's Deer Island plant, so wells and septic systems are rare exceptions here. The older story is underground: clay sewer laterals and aging water services on tree-lined streets, where roots and corrosion do their slow work.
Milton's Building Department administers plumbing and gas permits, and inspectors here expect work on the town's historic housing to be done properly — as do we. A characteristic Milton project is the heating changeover: retiring a decades-old steam or oversized hot-water boiler for correctly sized modern equipment without wrecking the radiators, the plaster or the charm.
"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."
"True professionals — respectful and tidy. I've worked with them three times. The last was a burst water main; they were the only ones who responded fast, offered a solution, and got it done."
"Fantastic experience. They did the plumbing for two bathroom renovations — our master bath and the kids' bath — and the whole process was smooth, professional, and on time."

We do both. Plenty of Milton Hill steam systems are worth keeping with good maintenance; when a boiler fails, we lay out repair, replacement and conversion options with honest numbers so you can decide.
We camera the lateral first to see whether it's clay pipe with root intrusion, a belly or a break. From there it's clearing, spot repair or replacement — no guesswork, and you see the footage.
Yes. Licensed gas fitting is core work for us — standby generators, ranges, fireplaces and pool heaters — each on a Town of Milton gas permit with the inspection included.
Yes — as everywhere in Massachusetts, a water heater swap needs a permit and inspection. We handle the filing with Milton's Building Department as part of the installation.
MWRA water is actually quite soft, which is kind to fixtures. Problems in Milton homes more often trace to the pipes themselves — old galvanized sections, failing shutoffs — than to the water, and we can assess that in one visit.
