UnclaimedWhat a good quote should include
Comparable quotes are how you avoid the small-owner upcharge. Ask every pro to cover:
- Pipe material (PEX, copper, CPVC) and how much of the building is covered
- Drywall and finish repair after the work, included or not
- How long water will be shut off, and how tenants are handled
- Who pulls the permit and schedules inspections
- Warranty on both labor and materials
Licensing in Massachusetts
Massachusetts licenses plumbers through the Board of State Examiners of Plumbers and Gas Fitters, and plumbing work needs a permit pulled by a licensed plumber. Ask for the license number and check it with the state.
Permits come from Salem's building department. Plumbing, gas, and electrical work each need their own permit, pulled by the licensed trade doing the work.
Common plumbing jobs in Salem
Salem has some of the oldest building stock on the North Shore, including many 19th-century multifamily and mixed-use buildings. Exterior work on a building in one of Salem's local historic districts may need historical commission approval before a permit is issued, so ask any pro whether they've worked in the districts before.
