Illinois plumbers must be licensed through the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR). Before hiring, verify the plumber's current license by checking the IDFPR online portal at idfpr.illinois.gov. You can search for an individual plumber or the company's license to confirm active status and review any enforcement actions.

In Chicago, most plumbing work requires a permit from the Department of Buildings. The contractor should apply for the permit before beginning work. Ask your plumber whether your project needs a permit—this depends on the scope of work. Permitted work is inspected to meet Chicago's construction codes.

When you call a plumber, ask about their licensing, whether permits are required and included in the estimate, and their response time for emergencies. Confirm they handle the specific brand or type of fixture or system you need repaired or replaced.
