What Is The True Cost Of Hiring An Unlicensed Contractor?
If you are considering remodeling your kitchen or bathroom, getting a new roof for your home, or replacing your air conditioning system hiring a licensed contractor can save money and headaches even though the unlicensed contractor’s estimate may be less. There are costs that do not show up on the proposal for the job, but you need to be aware of them
HVAC contractors, roofing contractors, or any other trades are required by the state to have a license to do business. They are also required to carry liability insurance and worker’s compensation, so that you, as the home owner, are protected in case there is a problem.
Unlicensed contractors do not pay any of those fees associated with having a license, therefore they can under bid the job, however, you have very little protection.
Unlicensed contractors…
– Can not pull permits to get the job inspected to make sure its done properly.
– Are not insured so you may be liable for accidents that is caused by them.
– Do not stand behind their work.
– May scam you out of money and disappear.
