Looking for a licensed plumber in Newton, MA? IS Plumbing serves all of the Garden City — from Newton Centre and Newtonville to West Newton, Auburndale, Waban and Chestnut Hill — with plumbing, gas fitting, water heaters and heating, all permitted and inspected.
Newton's mix of century-old Victorians and Colonials means aging supply lines, cast-iron drains and steam or hot-water heating that need someone who has seen it all. We handle everything from a dripping faucet in Newton Highlands to a full bathroom remodel or a high-efficiency boiler swap — clean work, honest quotes, and every job pulled under the proper Newton permits.
Newton is a full MWRA community — Quabbin and Wachusett water in the mains, sewers bound for Deer Island — but the private side is as old as the housing: galvanized supply lines in pre-war Victorians and Colonials, cast-iron stacks, and water services old enough that the city runs a lead service replacement program. We replace the private side and camera-inspect aging drains before anyone opens a wall or digs a trench.
Plumbing and gas permits across all thirteen villages file through Newton's Inspectional Services Department, and we handle the filing and meet the inspector ourselves. The job we see most in this housing stock is the heating-plant refresh: a decades-old boiler in a Newton Centre or West Newton basement swapped for a properly sized high-efficiency unit, often with an indirect water heater replacing a tired tank at the same time.
"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."

Yes. Newton's century-old Victorians and Colonials often still run galvanized or aging copper supply lines and cast-iron drains — repiping and drain replacement is routine work for us here.
The everyday list and the hard ones: leaking pipes and fittings, running or clogged toilets, faucets and shower valves, garbage disposals, sump pumps, water heaters that leak or won't heat, clogged drains and main lines, and failing shutoff valves. We find the cause first, then quote the repair upfront.
