It is legal to hire a person for small repair jobs even if he/she does not have a contractor’s license, if the job does not exceed the total amount of $500.00 and the person/business you hire discloses the fact of not being licensed by the Contractor’s License Board before performing the work.

I, “SMOKE ALARM INSTALLATION GUY, IS NOT LICENSED BY THE CONTRACTORS’ STATE LICENSE BOARD.

STATE LAW REQUIRES ANYONE WHO CONTRACTS TO DO CONSTRUCTION WORK TO BE LICENSED BY THE CONTRACTORS’ STATE LICENSE BOARD IN THE LICENSE CATEGORY IN WHICH THE CONTRACTOR IS GOING TO BE WORKING—IF THE TOTAL PRICE OF THE JOB IS LESS THAN $500 (INCLUDING LABOR AND MATERIALS).

LICENSED CONTRACTORS ARE REGULATED BY LAWS DESIGNED TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC. IF YOU CONTRACT WITH SOMEONE WHO DOES NOT HAVE A LICENSE, THE CONTRACTORS’ STATE LICENSE BOARD MAY BE UNABLE TO ASSIST YOU WITH A COMPLAINT. YOUR ONLY REMEDY AGAINST AN UNLICENSED CONTRACTOR MAY BE IN CIVIL COURT, AND YOU MAY BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF ANY INJURIES TO THE CONTRACTOR OR HIS OR HER EMPLOYEES.”
