What should you know about plumbing work in East Village?
East Village has about 40,193 homes, in buildings with an average build year of 1913. 63% of homes are in pre-1940 buildings, and 48% are in walk-up apartment buildings.
In the past 12 months the city issued 175 plumbing permits for work in East Village, and HPD inspectors wrote 405 violations for leaks, drains and plumbing in rental buildings here (8th of 25 in Manhattan).
Older buildings like these often still have galvanized steel or cast-iron lines, so ask the plumber whether a leak is a one-off or a sign the riser or branch lines are due, and get the price for both in writing.

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.
