Do plumbers need a license in New York City?
New York City licenses plumbers itself. Plumbing and gas work must be done by, or under, a Licensed Master Plumber (LMP) from the Department of Buildings (DOB), and the LMP files the work permit in DOB NOW: Build. A DCWP home improvement license does not cover plumbing.
How can you check the license yourself?
Ask for the master plumber's license number and look it up on the DOB NOW Public Portal or DOB's license search. Every permit in our listings was filed under a DOB plumbing license.
- DOB NOW Public Portal (license and permit search)
- DOB: periodic gas piping inspections (Local Law 152): Most buildings other than one- and two-family homes must have their gas piping inspected by a Licensed Master Plumber every four years under Local Law 152.
