In the news unlicensed contractors
Licensed and Insured
Are
they referring to...
Occupational Tax/License or a Real Contractor's License?
The famous three little words that unlicensed contractors use. When you see these three words not supported with a state or local county contractor's license number it could very well be an unlicensed contractor. Simply ask for the contractor license number and ask to see the license and then call to verify that it is a license to do the work that you need done.
