Austin Plumbing & Heating Was Built for Work That Has to Hold Up
Rispoli family plumbing in NYC since 1968
The Rispoli family has been doing plumbing work in New York City since 1968. Austin Plumbing & Heating grew out of that long-running family commitment to code-compliant work, clear documentation, and showing up when building owners need a real answer.
Over more than five decades, the work has changed: new materials, new codes, new agencies, and new technology. What has not changed is the standard. Every project Austin Plumbing takes on is expected to pass inspection, satisfy the documentation requirements of whoever reviews it next, and not generate a callback.

Operating Focus
Compliance-driven NYC work
Licensed Master Plumber, Focused on Compliance
Austin Plumbing & Heating holds New York State Master Plumber license #1879. That license allows us to file DOB permits, pull gas line work permits, supervise boiler installations, and appear in DOB records as the plumber of record on a job.
For compliance work such as violation removal, after-the-fact permit filings, and gas restoration, the master plumber license is not a credential on a business card. It is the legal prerequisite to do the work. We do not subcontract that responsibility or hand it to a journeyman. The master plumber is on the job.
Beyond the license, what distinguishes Austin is familiarity with the regulatory environment: understanding DOB Plumbing Code, knowing how HPD violation documentation works, knowing what a proof-of-correction submission needs to include to get accepted, and knowing when a project requires an expediter and when it does not.
How Austin Plumbing Works With NYC Agencies
DOB, HPD, DEP, and OATH are not abstractions. They are the agencies that issue violations, schedule inspections, hold hearings, and ultimately decide whether a building record is clear.
Austin Plumbing has working knowledge of how each agency operates: the BIS system, the DOB NOW platform for permit filings, HPD complaint and inspection workflow, and DEP backflow certification requirements. For projects that require more, such as PE stamps, expediter coordination, or architect sign-offs, we have professional relationships we draw on.
The goal is always the same: get the violation closed, get the documentation in place, and get the building owner what they need to move forward.
