Austin Plumbing & Heating
NYC Licensed Master Plumber
Service Area
Austin Plumbing & Heating serves Queens homeowners, landlords, and building owners with licensed master plumber services - from emergency plumbing to full DOB violation removal. Queens is one of our primary service areas, and we understand the specific building types and violation patterns that are most common there.
Service Lines
Austin handles both the compliance side and the plumbing work itself in Queens. If your property needs a correction, an inspection, or ongoing service, these are the two paths we provide every day.
Compliance
Queens owners call us when basement conversions, old plumbing work, missed filings, or failed gas inspections need a licensed master plumber to correct the record and close the issue out properly.

We also handle everyday plumbing across Queens homes and small commercial buildings, from leak repairs and drain issues to heating work and code-compliant replacements.

Queens is home to one of the densest concentrations of two-family and three-family homes in New York City - many of which have basement or cellar spaces that have been converted to living quarters over decades, often without the required DOB permits.
Most common plumbing violations in Queens:
Converting a basement or cellar to a legal dwelling unit requires DOB permits, and the plumbing has to meet current code for that use. Many conversions were done informally over decades - these show up as violations during sales, refinancing, or 311 complaints. Options include legalization (where zoning allows) or restoration with proper plumbing removal and capping.
Queens community districts are spread across multiple inspection cycles under the LL152 rolling schedule. Buildings that miss their inspection window or fail the inspection receive DOB violations. Austin handles LL152 inspections, corrective piping work, and violation clearance.
Prior-owner plumbing alterations are common in neighborhoods with high turnover and significant renovation activity. Unpermitted work by a prior owner becomes the current owner's violation.
Aging heating equipment in two- and three-family homes triggers HPD complaints when heat or hot water is interrupted.
