Plumbing Permits
Important Note
All plumbing work associated with a building permit (including tenant improvements) is permitted as a component of the building permit. A separate permit will not be issued. The only exception are backflow devices, which require an over-the-counter permit. If you are a subcontractor, please contact the general contractor or project manager to verify the proper plans were reviewed and approved for your portion of the work. All inspections may be requested at MyBuildingPermit.com.
Over the Counter (Non plan review)
You must apply online at MyBuildingPermit.com to have a permit issued immediately. Over the Counter issuance is available for backflow devices and single family fixture installations including electrical water heaters. Please note that gas water heater installation requires a mechanical permit and is also available online.
