Indiana Plumbing License Renewal
Last reviewed October 2026
Indiana's journeyman plumber, plumbing contractor and plumbing corporation licenses, issued by the Professional Licensing Agency (PLA) for the Indiana Plumbing Commission, all expire on December 31 of every odd-numbered year, so the current ones expire December 31, 2027. Renewing costs $30 for a journeyman and $100 for a contractor or corporation. A renewal received after December 31 adds a late fee, which goes up from March 1 of the even year, and a journeyman or contractor license expired three years or more has to be reinstated, with a personal appearance before the Commission.

Indianapolis Contractor License Renewal
Last reviewed October 2026
Indianapolis licenses its own contractors: the Department of Business and Neighborhood Services (BNS) licenses general, electrical, HVAC and wrecking contractors and registers state-licensed plumbing contractors working in the Consolidated City of Indianapolis (not Lawrence, Beech Grove, Speedway or Southport). Every license is renewable every two years and expires on December 31: general contractor licenses in even-numbered years, so the current ones on December 31, 2026, and electrical, HVAC, wrecking and plumbing licenses in odd-numbered years, next on December 31, 2027. Renewal can't be done online: you email or mail BNS the same application packet a new contractor uses (for general, electrical, HVAC and wrecking licenses, with a current certificate of insurance and a bond or continuation certificate that runs through the next term), then pay from the link BNS emails you.
