Maine Plumbing HELP!

[Matthew Hitchcock]

Does anyone have experience with plumbing laws in Maine? plumbing is being kept the same above the trap. We are simply putting in new toilet, vanity, and shower. We found Kennebunkport plumbing code that states what we are doing is fine to do on our own; however, town inspector says due to rental... A licensed plumber needs to install. Does this seem right? any help is greatly appreciated.

I think Santos Collantes is correct . If this is not your "primary" residence then technically you cannot pull the permit yourself.

Happened on a few flips for a friend of mine. Tried to pull the permit himself because he owned it but because it was an investment property he could not.

However in Maine if you are just "replacing" fixtures not moving anything plumbing then technically you don't need a permit.
