Put the work in order
Put the work in order
- Before application: settle the address, rooms, fixtures, materials, estimated project cost and related work.
- At application: confirm the responsible licensee, insurance and required affidavit or supporting documents.
- Before work: verify the permit is issued and any building, association, utility or landmarks conditions are resolved.
- After work: request inspection, make the licensed contractor available as required, correct findings and verify closure.
The hold point
The hold point
Boston's plumbing permit page says the contractor performing the work applies and the license must match the applicant. The submitted scope describes rooms, floors, materials and related permits. Work should not begin before issuance. After completion, the inspection and permit record still need attention.
