Cannistraro

Cannistraro From its roots as a family-owned, Boston-based plumbing contractor, Cannistraro has grown into a world-class mechanical construction firm.

Using the most progressive construction technologies along with the most modern pre-fabrication capabilities, Cannistraro offers complete mechanical services from pre-construction through service and maintenance. Technology changes everything, even in construction. Traditional building methods are being modernized with technology that improves the quality and efficiency of your building. Utilizing

the full dimension of BIM, Cannistraro is truly building with intelligence. Cannistraro has the capacity to design and pre-fabricate piping components for the most complicated mechanical systems. The company has a pre-fabrication and storage facility for Fire Protection, as well as a 40,000 square foot Plumbing and HVAC shop complete with overhead cranes, plasma cutters, and automatic welding machines. Using BIM, our foremen work directly with our modelers to produce pre-fabrication documents known as “spool sheets.” These documents are downloaded to the shop floor where our licensed mechanics create piping assemblies that are ready for delivery and installation. Pipe fabrication and delivery is available for new construction projects of any size or scope, as is large-scale pre-assembly of mechanical equipment for other building needs. We've found that nearly every existing building has the potential for energy savings opportunities. Our diverse set of energy services are designed to help you identify those opportunities and capitalize on their savings. Contact us to get started!

Startup & Commissioning is underway at the United Air Hanger in Newark, New Jersey!
 
“These monitors provide under‑wing fire protection for aircraft inside the hangar, and before the system is signed off, we run a full‑scale test to verify performance and confirm that every part of the hazard area is actually being protected.
 
Once we establish the required flow rates and lock in the monitor angles, we carry out a full discharge test to validate reach, coverage overlap, and protection across all critical hazard areas.
 
Attention to detail during commissioning is what ensures these systems perform when they’re needed most!” - Chris Tripolone, a 550 Foreman in Special Hazards.

to Plumbing Industry Day at the MA State House this past March. We joined the Greater Boston PCA to celebrate World Plumbing Day with over 200 attendees from across Massachusetts. We came together to advocate for the plumbing industry and plumbers.
 
It was great to be joined by representatives from Plumbers Local 12, Local 51, Local 4, Local 104, PHCC of MA  , IAPMO  , Plumbing Inspectors, and many others to meet with elected officials and discuss the future of plumbing in Massachusetts!

We hope everyone had a great and safe Memorial Day! As we start the new week we will continue to remember those who have served, and those who still serve our country.
 
This weekend, our own veteran, Michael Howard, Foreman in 537, attended the Massachusetts Fallen Heroes Memorial tribute in the Boston Seaport. A thousand flags were placed as a meaningful act of remembrance and gratitude for those who gave their lives in defense of our nation.

🚧 MBTA Quincy | Progress Highlight 🚧  
  
This five acre facility is gearing up to recharge dozens of electric buses, and our crew has been putting in serious work.  
  
We’ve been fabricating and installing massive duct systems throughout the building — nearly 290,000 pounds of sheet metal, with some runs stretching over 400 feet and hanging 32 feet in the air. 
  
The team is doing a fantastic job on this site!

Last week our Service Group partnered with FIA, Inc. for their Combustion Fundamentals for Modern Gas Boilers training.   
 
We had a great turnout with over 20 technicians in attendance, bringing together both HVAC and Plumbing Service teams for a hands-on learning experience.   
 
A big thank you to FIA for hosting and to Robb Ellis for leading an informative and engaging session. We appreciate the continued partnership and opportunity to invest in our team’s growth and development.
