STATE MM-98 / JPCID Issued
Plumbing contractors operating in Santa Fe, New Mexico, must navigate a dual-layer regulatory environment.

Ensuring your state license is active and properly registered with the local jurisdiction is the first step toward legal operation.
All plumbing installations must adhere to the New Mexico Plumbing Code. Contractors are responsible for obtaining permits before starting work and ensuring that all installations are inspected at the rough-in and final stages. Failure to comply with these local and state mandates can lead to significant project delays, financial penalties, and potential suspension of your professional license.
