About this Plumbing Inspector package
Texas Plumbing Inspector Book Package Prepare for the Texas Plumbing Inspector examination with a focused set of technical references covering plumbing systems, fuel-gas installations, water heaters, drainage, venting, water distribution, fixtures, piping materials, and code-compliant installation practices.
How does the Plumbing Inspector exam work?
The Plumbing Inspector license comes from the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners. You apply to TSBPE, then take the written exam at Pearson VUE and, where required, the practical in Austin or Waco.
- The exam fee, the license fee and the renewal fee are each $55.
- Pearson VUE lists the computer-based plumbing inspector exam as coming soon, so check with TSBPE how it is given now.
- The Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners (TSBPE) licenses plumbers, not TDLR, and Pearson VUE gives the computer exams.
- The written exams are closed book: no books, papers or references are allowed in the room, so what you study is what you have.
- Journeyman and tradesman candidates also take a hands-on practical, held only in Austin and Waco.
- The current handbook points to the 2018 IPC with the 2018 IFGC, or the 2018 UPC; a move to the 2021 codes was proposed in July 2026.
