Pulling Plumbing Permit

I need a plumber in Killeen TX who will pull a permit to replace a main sewer line? I'm happy to pay for their time to pull the permit and oversee the project.  It's a simple project and I have the labor covered, just need the permit from the city.

Thanks for the response, it's really appreciated.  I went to the city and tried a couple of options but since the property has 8 units I have to get a permit for each unit that I'm working on listing everything that needs a permit and for external plumbing I am required to have a Master Plumber get the permit.  I'm sure there is a way around it but I just don't have enough experience with the city to know.

Ah, I see. You have a multi unit so you will for sure need a plumber. (you already knew that lol but I wasn't aware of the multi unit). 

So, since you have a multi unit, maybe get in touch with some plumbers and tell them what you intend to do. One out of ten may bite. I don't know any plumbers in that area. The closest one I know to you is in New Braunfels but he works in Austin also. Not sure if he goes up that far or not. 

In 2 more years there may not even be a licensed plumber in Texas anymore. They almost lost it this year back in June but decided (the state) to keep it in affect for 2 more years until the state board can get it's act together. Not helping you now I know but that's what is happening here in Texas right now.
