Some Slick Homeowners And Developers

Are Getting Contractors To Work For Free!

They Search For Unlicensed Contractors- Have them submit a bid, get them excited to start as soon as possible, give the contractor as little money as possible, stall whenever the contractor asks for more money and when the contractor finally stops work and threatens to sue them they say laugh at them and say "Go Ahead" knowing the odds are the licensed contractor will not likely collect a penny. Then they simply hire another unlicensed contractor to complete the work. 

Not All Situations Involve - Crooked behavior, sometimes the relationship between the homeowner and the contractor starts out right and after a while it turns ugly and the unlicensed contractor is punished severely. Download the PDF file below for an example.

The Biggest Source Of Contractor Misinformation - Is The Contractors Business Round Table. The little round table at the neighborhood bar with a pitcher of beer and several contractors where stories are told about how much money can be saved by not being licensed, bonded, insured and hiring all employees as 1099 contractors. This is where contractors learn the true meaning of the phrase "Opinions From Experts Costs Money" and "Free Advice Is Not Free Because It Has Hidden Costs"

Contractors With Experience - With lawsuits involving a customer who refused to pay even with Iron-Clad contracts and signatures everywhere know that without a current license, bond and insurance their case usually gets thrown out of court faster than a mouse riding wild bronco at a rodeo. We are not attorneys and do not give legal advice so check with your attorney.
