What a plumbing scope of work is for

Plumbing scope fights are about what is behind the wall and who closes it back up. Name the fixtures and pipe material, say where you will need access, and say plainly whether drywall, tile and paint repairs are yours or the customer's. Then a cut-open wall is part of the plan, not a surprise on the final invoice.

What to put in a plumbing scope of work

  • Fixtures and equipment by brand and model.
  • Pipe materials: PEX, copper, PVC, and sizes where it matters.
  • Shutoff valves and where water will be off.
  • Access openings and who repairs them.
  • Permit and inspection.
  • Disposal of old fixtures and equipment.

Items to settle in a plumbing scope

  • Whether expansion tanks, pans or venting updates are included.
  • Which walls or ceilings will be opened.
  • Who repairs drywall, tile and paint afterwards.
  • How long water will be off.
  • What happens if corroded pipe is found past the work area.
  • Who supplies the fixtures, you or the customer.

FAQ

What should a plumbing scope of work include?

The fixtures and equipment by model, pipe materials, shutoffs, any access openings and who repairs them, the permit, disposal of old equipment, and what is excluded.

Who repairs drywall after plumbing work?

Whoever the scope says. Many plumbers rough-patch only and leave finishing to the customer or another trade. Write it down so nobody is surprised.

What if the customer supplies the fixtures?

Note it in the scope, say you will install what is provided, and say who is responsible if a supplied fixture is defective or missing parts.

Do I need to mention the water shutoff time?

Yes. Customers plan around it, and a stated window avoids complaints. Add it to the schedule section.
