Plumbing Permits

Plumbing Permit

Plumbing permits are required to install new plumbing systems. This includes building a new bathroom or relocating an existing one. 

You don't need a plumbing permit to replace or repair: 

  • Valves 
  • Faucets 
  • Fixtures 
  • Water heaters 

Plumbing permit fees are separate from the building permit fees related to new building projects. 

The Region of Durham Health department issues permits for septic systems within the Township of Scugog.
