The New Jersey State League of Master Plumbers filed three municipal complaints against Home Depot for failing to take out plumbing permits when the company contracted an unlicensed plumber to install water heaters.
In July and August of 1998, Home Depot contracted Shower Door Dr. Water Heater Co., an unlicensed plumbing company from Glenside, Pa., to install three water heaters in three different towns in New Jersey, sources said. According to the League's president, Gary Devine, it is illegal to contract, install or advertise plumbing installations in New Jersey without a license.
