What does it mean for a contractor to be licensed and insured? How important are these qualifications for your project? With so many contractors to choose from – how can you see the difference between them all?
First, the state requires all contractors conducting business to be licensed through the Utah Division of Occupation and Professional Licensing. Just in order to be considered for licensing a contractor must have years of experience, must pass exams testing practical and business knowledge, maintain on-going education and licensing and must carry liability insurance which protects both the contractor and the client.
It’s important for you to understand that a fully licensed and insured contractor operating in an organized company means that they are not only operating legally but have years of hard earned experience and business practice behind them that will bring you a quality product and also quality business practice and reliability. An illegally operating contractor who is not licenced or insured is showing no proof of experience, no proof of quality business practice and no proof of general business organization. Additionally, although an uninsured and unlicensed contractor may install a quality product for you at a very low price, if the major material bill is not paid to the supply company for the products, the supply company will lien the property where the materials were installed. Although an underdog may offer you the lowest bid, he may be a serious risk for the quality of your project and your financial investment. We always recommend simply looking into the contractor you hire.
