In California, plumbers must hold a C-36 Plumbing Contractor license issued by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). Before you hire, verify the contractor's license status using the CSLB online lookup tool at cslb.ca.gov. You can search by license number (found on their plastic pocket license) or business name. This step reveals the license status and any complaint history.

Most plumbing work requires a building permit from your local building department. The California Building Standards Code requires separate permits for many types of construction, repair, and improvement work. Contact the Burbank building department or your city's building official to confirm what permits your project needs. Your plumber should be familiar with local permit requirements.

When you hire a plumber, ask whether they hold the C-36 license and request their license number. Understand upfront what work requires a permit and who will obtain it. Get a written contract that specifies the scope of work, timeline, and cost. These steps protect your investment and ensure the work meets code.
