(a) Persons who advertise plumbing services shall, at their place of business, display the licensed plumber’s license of at least one member of the firm or partnership or officer of the corporation and shall maintain a register listing the names and license numbers of all licensed plumbers and all licensed apprentice plumbers currently employed by them. The number of the license so displayed shall also be included with the plumbing identification on vehicles.
(b) No person who provides plumbing services may advertise those services unless that person includes in the advertisement the license number that is required to be displayed under subsection (a). Nothing contained in this subsection requires the publisher of advertising for plumbing services to investigate or verify the accuracy of the license number provided by the advertiser.
(c) The Commissioner may require by rule additional information concerning licensed plumbers and licensed apprentice plumbers be maintained in the register. The Commissioner and Board of Plumbing Examiners shall have the right to examine the payroll records of such persons to determine compliance with this chapter. The Commissioner and Board of Plumbing Examiners’ right to examine payroll records is limited solely to those records and does not extend to any other business records.
