What Is Local Law 152?

Local Law 152 is a New York City law that requires periodic gas piping inspections in certain buildings. The goal is simple: improve gas safety, reduce leaks, and prevent dangerous conditions in NYC buildings.

In plain language, Local Law 152 means:

  • Many buildings with gas piping in NYC must have a gas piping inspection by a Licensed Master Plumber (or their qualified designee).
  • Inspections must be done on a regular four-year cycle, based on a DOB schedule for your community district.
  • A certification must be filed with the NYC Department of Buildings (DOB) within a specific timeframe after the inspection.

Who Does Local Law 152 Usually Apply To?

In general, Local Law 152 inspections typically apply to many:

  • Multi-family residential buildings with gas
  • Mixed-use and commercial buildings with gas piping
  • Some condo and co-op buildings
  • Buildings with interior gas piping systems

Single-family homes and some small buildings may be exempt, but there are details and exceptions.

Rules and deadlines can change. You should confirm your exact Local Law 152 obligations with the NYC DOB or a Licensed Master Plumber. We can walk you through this on a quick call.

If you’re not sure whether your building is covered, call us or send in the form for guidance.
