About Boise Elite Plumber

Boise Elite Plumber is an independent referral service for homeowners in Boise and Ada County. We publish plain guides to what plumbing problems usually are, what the work costs, what the City of Boise requires and how to check a plumber's Idaho license, and we match homeowners with independent local plumbing contractors.

What we are, and what we are not

We are not a plumbing company. We do not perform plumbing work, we do not employ plumbers, and we do not hold an Idaho plumbing contractor certificate. When matching opens, a request you send goes to an independent, third-party plumbing contractor, who contacts you and quotes the job. Your agreement is with that contractor. Ask for their certificate number and look it up before work starts.

How this site is written

  • Rules come from the agency that sets them Permit statements were read from the City of Boise's own pages and documents, not from blogs or permit-lookup sites.
  • Prices come from one dated list Every dollar figure on every page is drawn from a single source file, so a job carries the same range everywhere. The national ranges were read on November 6, 2026.
  • We say what we have not read Where we could not confirm something from its source, the page says so and names the office to ask.
  • No invented reviews or rankings There are no star ratings, review counts or "best of" rankings on this site.

What we read

City of Boise documents behind the rules pages, read directly on the City's site:

State of Idaho rule cited, read from a published copy rather than directly on the State's site (which our tools could not open):

National cost guides behind the price ranges:

What we have not read

  • The Idaho plumbing licensing statute. We do not quote it.
  • Idaho DOPL's own pages, including its license search screens and license classes.
  • The Boise City Code chapter behind the City's permit guide and fee schedule.
  • Permit rules for Meridian, Eagle, Garden City, Kuna, Star or unincorporated Ada County.
  • Any Boise plumbing company's price list. We found none published, so our price ranges are national.
  • Whether the City's October 2021 fee schedule is still the current one. The Building Division, (208) 608-7070, confirms today's fee.
