What are the potential problems of dealing with an unlicensed contractor?
• These contractors do not pay taxes, have insurance or bonds. If you have a problem with them it may be very difficult to resolve and you could be burdened with unexpected legal or financial issues. You can report a contractor operating without a license to the Contractors State Licensing Board at Report Unlicensed Activity. A form to fill out can be downloaded the from the site under a SWIFT Lead Referral Form.
