This license is the primary authorization for performing plumbing work across the state.
At the local level, contractors must comply with the specific building codes of the City of Las Vegas or Clark County. This involves obtaining local business licenses and securing individual permits for specific plumbing projects. Adherence to the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC) is mandatory, and all work must be subject to official inspections to ensure public health and safety standards are met.
