2016 saw the introduction of Local Law 152 by the Department of Buildings, or DOB, to local New York City legislature. This law, part of a larger overhaul to maximize the safety of gas lines, has made it so that all gas piping systems in all buildings need to undergo periodic inspections.

According to the law itself, the failure to comply with Local Law 152 could result in a civil penalty entailing a sum of up to $5,000.

Josh from “A Good Plumber” was great. He assessed the boiler leak and explained what he would do. As the work progressed, it became a bit more complicated as there was also pipe corrosion. As I wasn’t there, Josh kept me informed of everything and sent before and after pictures. Honest pricing and wonderful communication with Josh and Briana at the office. Thank you for everything!

Thomas Sobolow, like his father Warren, is not only a great plumber, but also an outstanding person. He came over to fix a leak in my steam pipe system, quickly assessed the situation, identified the various immediate and possibly long term issues, and agreed to address only the immediate issues, while alerting me to what might happen in the future. He was a pleasure to work with, and reinforced my loyalty to A Good Plumber.
