The Memphis, TN Local Code Shield
In Memphis, any plumbing professional must hold a valid Tennessee State Contractor License specifically classified for plumbing, often paired with a Shelby County business permit. Ensuring your contractor strictly adheres to the International Residential Code (IRC) as amended by local municipal ordinances is your primary defense against substandard workmanship. Always verify that they pull required permits for major water heater installations or sewer line replacements to ensure the work is officially inspected by the Memphis and Shelby County Code Enforcement office.
