Waldman Plumbing is one of the oldest plumbing and heating service companies on the North Shore. We have been serving customers for over 100 years and are now on our 4th generation. We are proud to say that we have become known for our personal and prompt service. One century ago, Jacob Waldman, newly-arrived in the United States, started Waldman Plumbing and Heating. He rode his two-wheel bicycle, carrying his bag of tools, from job to job. Over the years, his son Phil followed him into the business, as did Jacob's grandson Mike and great-grandson Jeff. Today Mike and Jeff Waldman are the heart of Waldman Plumbing and Heating, serving residents and businesses North of Boston and beyond. Located in Lynn, Waldman serves a diverse clientele within a 20-mile radius.
