In 2003, we charged our name from Hughes Plumbing to The Polite Plumber. It was the hardest decision we ever made, but we believe it was the best thing we have ever done. We wanted to express exactly who we are in regards to our personal and trustworthy service. Our customers have responded well to the name and we believe that our grandfather would be proud too!. The Polite Plumber continues to be owned and operated by William J Hughes, and this year he is so proud to announce the the company has now been joined by the Hughes' fourth generation, his son Eric.
New Jersey state laws require any contractors or subcontractors who sell or make home improvements to be registered with compliance to "Contractors' Registration Act".
However, construction permits are issued, as before, by the municipalities in which contractors are working.
A Contractor must be sure to use a written contract if a project costs more than $500.
Any person who makes improvement project of a home he(she) or his(her) family member owns is not required to registered as contractor.
Before hiring a contractor, make sure that they have a valid license and that their skills are appropriate for the job you are planning.
