Do I need a permit for plumbing fixture or repiping in Benton?

Permit likely required

Most likely yes. Plumbing fixture or repiping usually requires a permit in Arkansas. Confirm the specifics with Benton.

Replacing concealed pipe is treated as new work needing a permit and inspection under the Arkansas Plumbing Code (Section 106.2). An owner may do plumbing in a building he or she owns and occupies as a home without a license, except where local ordinance requires one (ACA 17-38-302). Arkansas has no statewide residential permit office: building permits come from a city or town (or a county that chose to run a program), so the first question is which local office, if any, covers the address.
