I've got some old galvanized water pipe in the basement I'd like to replace with copper. Since all the pipe is exposed, and the all the pipe going to the upper floors is already copper, I'm going to take on the job myself.
I've never dealt with getting a permit or inspection before, and was wondering what the pros and cons of going through the permit/inspection process on a job like this would be for a DIYer. I'm not planning on doing anything that goes against code (though I would assume everyone says that), so is this even a necessary step?
What benifits do I get from having the work inspected, other than confirming that the job was done to code?
Thanks for any advice.
