About Us

About Kirkland and Shaw Inc.

Kirkland and Shaw has spent years earning the trust of Burlington and the surrounding Boston-area communities, one honest job at a time. Whether it's a routine faucet repair or a full system overhaul, our licensed technicians show up on time, treat your home with respect, and explain exactly what needs to be done before any work begins — no surprises, no upsells, just straight answers from people who know the trade.

Greater Boston's housing stock brings challenges you won't find in newer construction, and our team has the specialized experience to match. From navigating the tangled cast-iron sewer stacks common in older triple-decker conversions to upgrading brittle, corroding galvanized supply lines before they fail, we understand the quirks of this region's plumbing infrastructure better than most. We also protect hydronic boiler systems against New England's brutal freeze-thaw cycles, so you're not left without heat on the coldest night of the year.

As both a plumbing and HVAC contractor, we're able to handle the full picture of your home's comfort systems — heating, cooling, water, and drainage — under one roof, with one team you can call again and again. That continuity is why customers who found us a decade ago still call us first today.
