Pipe Repair & Repiping for Watertown Homes

Hunt Plumbing And Heating INC provides pipe repair & repiping for homes and businesses in Watertown, MA. Copper and PEX repairs and repipes for properties of every age. We fix damaged sections and replace aging plumbing so your water supply is reliable again.

Much of Watertown's housing is mid-century or older — 63% of homes were built before 1960 (median year built: 1947). Plumbing in mid-century homes has often been patched over the decades, so we look for mixed materials and worn fittings when we repair a leak.

We serve ZIP codes 02272, 02277, 02471, 02472 and 02477 and every community within 25 km of Watertown, and our nearest neighboring service areas for pipe repair & repiping include Belmont, Newton and Waltham.

Local Considerations

Plumbing in Watertown: What's Local

What the data says about homes in Watertown — and what it means for pipe repair & repiping.

  • Local housing

    Much of Watertown's housing is mid-century or older — 63% of homes were built before 1960 (median year built: 1947). Plumbing in mid-century homes has often been patched over the decades, so we look for mixed materials and worn fittings when we repair a leak.

  • Winter in Watertown

    Based on the last ten years of weather data for Watertown, nights drop to freezing or below on about 109 days a year, and on roughly 20 days the temperature stays below freezing all day. The average January low is 22°F. Pipes that froze once are more likely to freeze again, so we look at insulation and routing when we repair a frozen or burst section.

  • Water supply

    Watertown's water: MWRA-supplied water from the Quabbin and Wachusett reservoirs. Knowing where your water comes from helps us plan repairs, from the meter or pressure tank to each fixture.

Good to know about pipe repair & repiping

  • EPA says lead service lines (the pipes connecting a home to the water main) are typically the most significant source of lead in drinking water, and lead pipes are more likely in older cities and homes built before 1986.

    epa.gov
  • EPA recommends asking your water utility, or a licensed plumber if the utility lacks information, to determine whether your service line is lead.

  • EPA advises using only cold water for drinking, cooking and making baby formula, and notes that boiling water does not remove lead.
