About
Kolstad Associates Inc. operates out of two New York locations — Rochester and a second branch at 2 Charles Blvd. in Guilderland, NY — giving Albany-area facility managers and property owners direct, local access to a fourth-generation engineered plumbing products representative with a 21,000-square-foot stocked warehouse behind every order. Rather than a traditional service contractor, Kolstad functions as a specialized commercial plumbing products representative and distributor, bridging the gap between top-tier manufacturers and the architects, engineers, general contractors, and wholesale distribution professionals who specify and install commercial plumbing systems. For facility managers overseeing office buildings, healthcare campuses, K–12 schools, universities, or industrial facilities in the Capital Region, Kolstad's Albany-area office provides access to commercial-grade engineered plumbing products covering water supply and distribution, drain and sewer assemblies, backflow prevention devices, grease interceptors, gas piping components, and commercial water heating equipment. The company represents industry-leading brands including Elkay, Zurn, Milwaukee Valve, and Miro — lines frequently specified in IPC- and UPC-compliant commercial construction and renovation projects. A dedicated inside sales team and quoting department support procurement for multi-site property portfolios and large institutional projects alike. Kolstad also offers AIA/CES-accredited Lunch and Learn continuing education programs through manufacturer partners, a value-added resource for engineering and architectural firms specifying plumbing systems for commercial, institutional, and industrial buildings across the Albany, NY metro. Property managers and general contractors sourcing engineered plumbing products for upcoming builds or retrofits will find Kolstad's knowledgeable staff well-positioned to assist with product selection, specification support, and competitive pricing.
