Good morning!

The City of Denton is reminding all plumbing and irrigation contractors that emergency leak repairs require a permit if new materials are used including new fittings, new pipe, and more in accordance with the 2021 International Building Code, Residential Code, and Plumbing Code (see sections 105.2, 105.2.1, and 106.2 respectively). A permit is required to be applied for the next business day following an emergency repair.

If you have any questions, please reach out to our team at 940-349-8360 or building@cityofdenton.com.

Thank you,
Building Safety Team
City of Denton
