The short answer
Kingston has a median build year of 1980 across its housing. That is late enough for copper and early enough for polybutylene in places, which is why the pattern of the symptom is worth establishing before anybody is called out.
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 5-year estimates, table B25035.
Kingston has 5,547 occupied homes across 1 ZIP code. Across all its housing, vacant units included, the median build year is 1980 — the most useful single fact for working out why the water pressure is weak, because it predicts what the supply pipe is made of.
What this site is
PressureTrace is a referral service, not a plumbing contractor. We connect homeowners with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We do not perform plumbing work, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.Kingston sits 14 years newer than the MA median of 1966. Of the 176 MA towns we route calls in, its housing is older than 14% of them, and by number of homes it ranks 103rd.
What 1980 tells you about the pipe in Kingston
Housing of this vintage generally means copper throughout in most cases, with polybutylene fitted in some homes built from the late seventies onward. Polybutylene was discontinued in the mid-nineties and is worth identifying, because its failures are sudden rather than gradual. More on 1980s supply pipe.
84% of occupied homes in Kingston are owner-occupied, 24 points above the MA figure of 60%. It matters here because the run between the meter and the house belongs to the property owner, not the utility.

In Kingston, count the weak taps before you do anything else. Every one of them points at the supply; a single one points at that fixture, and the difference decides whether this costs you five minutes or a contractor. Normal supply is 45–80 psi and under 40 psi is low (here is the test). Then: whole house or one tap.
