The Building Inspections Division at City Hall, 300 W. Main Street, Grand Prairie, TX 75050, handles permits.

Box 534045, 75053. The division's pages don't give the plumbing fee or the plumbing code edition, so ask it for both. Texas law decides when you need that permit. Cities over 5,000 residents must require one before plumbing work, with exceptions for repairing leaks and for replacing faucets, ballcocks, control valves, disposals or toilets, and a plumbing inspector holding a license does the inspections. On a contract, the Responsible Master Plumber obtains the permits, requests the inspections and makes sure everyone doing the plumbing holds a license or registration.
The median year built in Grand Prairie is 1992, and owner-occupied homes have a median value of $295,500 (Census, 2020 to 2024). When you hire, ask which Responsible Master Plumber's license the job will run under.
