Plumbing Permit

A plumbing permit is required when adding or altering plumbing fixtures or systems, including storm and sewer lines. Examples of work requiring a plumbing permit include:

• adding or altering a bathroom or kitchen
• adding or replacing a water heater
• adding a permanent hot tub, spa or pool
• adding or extending an irrigation system
• adding any groundwater or rain and roof drains
• adding, replacing or increasing your water and/or sewer service line
• emergency repair, regular repair or alteration on a section of pipe five feet or longer  

Homeowners can not do any plumbing work on a residence that is a rental. A licensed plumber will need to be hired to do the work.
