Texas Attorneys Providing Plumbing Licensing Defense
If you think of a professional whose services are often needed on a moment's notice, with severe consequences possible if the work is not done well, a plumber is one person that can claim this status of urgency. When a home or business owner has a leak in the sink or unexplained flooding in the basement, that's not something that can go without attention for days or weeks. More seriously, plumbing systems that are installed incorrectly have the potential to cause injury, disease, or death. The quality and dependability of your work is essential to a safe and clean society.
When your professionalism is brought into question by a dissatisfied client or city employee, you need to have legal protection by your side from the first moment to preserve your reputation. The Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners is obligated to review every complaint that is filed with its office, assigning a Field Representative to question both you and the person who is making the accusation. If someone has become ill or structural damage has occurred allegedly as the result of your work, you don't want to face such serious charges alone.
The issue doesn't even have to be one of physical safety. A review of the code put forth in the Regulation of Environmental and Industrial Trades by the state of Texas shows that there are detailed instructions concerning the terms you can use to market yourself, how you are to proceed with installations, inspections, and repairs, as well as other logistical issues. One move against these state provisions, even done unknowingly, can lead to legal trouble. You need to be ready if that unfortunate situation arises. If a violation of Plumbing License Law or Board Rules is found, you can face a citation, administrative or civil penalty, or license suspension or revocation. Don't take that chance!
