Before you sign
What to ask a Yonkers contractor first
- 01
Will a documented pressure test and inspection sign-off be provided before gas service is restored to the appliances?
- 02
Does the meter or regulator have capacity for the added appliance, or must the utility upgrade it first?
- 03

Before anyone touches a pipe
Verify the licence. It takes two minutes.
- Who licenses the work: New York City Department of Buildings (DOB), the largest of New York's municipal plumbing licensing authorities; New York has no state-level plumbing licence together with the local jurisdiction.
- Who pulls the permit: City of Yonkers Department of Housing & Buildings — the licensed contractor, never the homeowner.
- What to ask for: the licence number, the registered name behind it, and an insurance certificate issued to the property address.
Answers first
Gas Lines in Yonkers — common questions
I smell gas — what do I do first?
Leave the building. Do not switch lights or appliances on or off, do not use a phone inside, and do not look for the leak yourself. Call your gas utility's emergency line from outside — utilities respond to suspected leaks at no charge. Only after they have made it safe does a licensed plumber do the repair.
Can any plumber work on gas lines?
No. Gas work is separately licensed or endorsed in most states and always permitted. Confirm that the contractor holds the correct gas credential for your state before work starts, and that a permit is being pulled.
Do I need a permit to add a gas line for a range or grill?
In nearly all jurisdictions, yes. Gas piping is permitted and pressure-tested work. Unpermitted gas work is a safety issue, an insurance problem and a resale problem.
Do I need a permit for plumbing work in Yonkers?
Permits in Yonkers are issued by City of Yonkers Department of Housing & Buildings. As a rule, water heater replacement, gas work, sewer laterals and repiping are permitted work, while a like-for-like faucet or disposal swap usually is not. A licensed contractor pulls the permit — if one offers to skip it, that is the signal to stop.
How does the callback request work?
The 30-second form asks for a name, ZIP and the number to reach you on. The request routes to an independent licensed professional covering that area, and they call you back. Consent for marketing contact is optional — the request goes through with or without it.
Which areas does PlumberNewYork cover?
All of New York: the site lists every covered city with real ZIP codes, the county permit authority and nearby coverage, so requests route to a professional already working that area.
Is PlumberNewYork a plumbing company?
No. Independent licensed professionals perform and contract the work directly with you. PlumberNewYork routes the request and links every page to the official New York licence register.
Does PlumberNewYork charge homeowners anything?
No. PlumberNewYork may be compensated by a partner when a homeowner connects with a professional through the site. That never changes what the contractor charges for the job.
