Your Local Plumber in New Bedford
New Bedford's historic housing stock — triple-deckers, mill-era homes, and the Victorian properties of the West End — means aging boilers and original plumbing. We service residential and commercial properties citywide.
South Coast housing skews older than the state average, and older housing means older pipe — galvanized supply lines, aging cast-iron waste stacks, and boilers well past their efficient years.
Kenneth Wood Plumbing & Heating has been serving Massachusetts families since 1988. We're a small, family-run company — when you call, you talk to someone who can actually help, and the plumber who shows up is licensed, insured, and experienced with the homes in New Bedford.
