Scope, license, and pricing

Make sure every quote includes the same line items and that the plumbing work is licensed.

  • Is subfloor repair included if needed, or a change order?
  • Are plumbing or valve relocations included — and which Kentucky-licensed plumber will pull the permit?
  • Is the Lexington-Fayette UCG / Jessamine / Scott / Woodford / Clark / Bourbon permit cost included?
  • Is haul-away and disposal included?
  • What's NOT included that often becomes a change order later?

Warranty and workmanship

Manufacturer and labor warranties are different. Both matter.

  • How long is the labor warranty, and is it transferable?
  • What's covered under the materials warranty separately?
  • If something fails in year 3, who do I call?

Frequently asked questions

Is it rude to ask for the plumber's license number?+

No. Kentucky requires plumbing work to be done by a licensed plumber, and the license number is public record. Reputable companies expect the question and provide it without pushback.
