I would think you need to be more specific for useful answers.
NYC area could mean North Jersey, Westchester, Staten Island, LI,
Manhattan, parts of CT, etc.

Anyone who is in traveling/working distance of New York City?

IOW, I'm in NYC, but I wouldn't discriminate against a plumber just
cause he lived in Brooklyn.

Not me.

What about asking a neighbor? A local person that may be familiar with
a reliable plumber in your area.

The question cannot be answered by many of the posters here.

OK, I clarified the question. I thought that was leading to a
recommendation, else why ask for specifics.

How many posters here live in NYC?

The question is frivolous in that regard.

I'd be very surprised if there was no one here from the NYC area.
I've exchanged posts with some NYC'ers here in the past. I am
assuming that Trader4 is from NYC, else why ask for clarification on
the exact location?

I can always call Rotorooter or one of the other big generic outfits,
but I have potentially over $1k of work to be done, and I'd rather
forward my $ to the hardworking guy with a small business. I thought I
could potentially help out someone here as well as myself.

You didn't say NYC, you said "NYC area". I'm in central NJ
and many would consider that the "NYC area", but a plumber from
here isn't going to go to the Bronx. I suggested you clarify your
question because it would increase your chance of getting a useful
response. And you still haven't given an idea of where in NYC the
actual job is. NYC is a big place, travel isn't easy, and
I'd be surprised if most plumbers from Staten Island would go to
the Bronx or even if they would, if you'd want to pay their travel time.

I agree with Oren. From experience here, AFAIK, there was one
person from NYC here occasionally, so chances are slim.

Last time I checked, Brooklyn was one of the five boroughs that comprise
NYC. Typical Manhattanite thinking.

If you cannot find a reference from a neighbor, you need to do some
leg work.

I'd suggest you visit a local plumbing supply house (one that opens
very early). Plumbers are there to get supplies for their jobs. They
often leave business cards at the desk or on a bulletin board. Speak
to one or use the card to check them out. Check your state
contractor's board online to verify licensing, insurance, complaints
made against them and if those complaints were rectified in a timely
manner to the customer's satisfaction.

The ball is in your court.

And I know how to SNIP

How is the permitting situation in NYC? Does one borough allow another's
license?
