Our History

Bert Tighe started Ti-SALES in 1963 selling waterworks supplies out of his basement with the help of his wife Edna and their three young sons. His vision was to give the best service in the water and wastewater industry in the Northeast, and to build a reputation so strong that it would be recognized by customers, suppliers, and even our competitors.

Today, we have 30 full-time employees, ten of whom are on the road constantly throughout New England and upstate New York. We service hundreds of water utilities, contractors, consultants, and resellers throughout our territory, all from our sole location in Sudbury. Meter reading and water infrastructure technology has changed a lot in the last 50 years, but Bert’s vision for our company still rings just as true and guides our ongoing commitment to faster, better, and smarter service.
