Plumbing - Changes to the Permit Application and the Declaration of Work
As of February 1, 2025, the Town of Mount Royal will renounce its agreement to oversee the application of the Plumbing Construction Code. Its territory will therefore fall under the authority of the Régie du bâtiment du Québec (RBQ).
In concrete terms, this means that plumbing contractors and builder-owners will no longer need to obtain a permit from the Town of Mount Royal. However, they will be required to declare to the RBQ all eligible plumbing work carried out on Town of Mount Royal territory. Fees associated with the work must also be paid to the RBQ.
Visit the Déclaration de travaux page of the Québec government to :
- obtain a form
- find out how to fill out and submit the form
- find out when to send it and how to pay.
We remind you that it is mandatory to file a declaration of work. Interest will be charged if the plumbing contractor fails to comply with this requirement. Declarations are subject to verification.
