Decision to make
Ask for the legal business, master plumber, journeyman performing work, license numbers, and the person who will pull a permit when required. Names on a vehicle or website may not be the contract entity.
Record to build
Use current Massachusetts eLIPSE search instructions. Search with the exact name or number, open the detail, and record license type, status, expiration or current information, and access date.
Question to compare
Compare the license result with contract, permit, invoice, payment, and any insurance evidence required by the property. Do not transfer a credential from a related or similarly named company.
Useful closeout
Recheck before delayed work or a changed contractor. This site makes no claims about the call recipient's licensing, insurance, screening, bonding, location, or availability.
