In Florida, plumbers who contract for compensation must be licensed by the Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR), Construction Industry Licensing Board. There are two main license types: certified contractors, who hold a certificate of competency and can work anywhere in the state, and registered contractors, who have fulfilled competency requirements for their specific jurisdiction and may contract only in that jurisdiction. Both types are regulated and their licenses can be through the state.

You can search for a plumber's license status on the DBPR online services portal at myfloridalicense.com. Use the license search tool to verify the contractor's credentials by name, license number, city, or county. This is a public record and important to check before hiring.

Most plumbing work in Miami-Dade County is subject to building permits and inspections. The county's building department oversees permit requirements and code compliance. Ask your plumber whether your specific job requires a permit—many plumbing repairs do—and whether they will obtain and manage permits as part of their work.
