ok guys i have a question especially for the Cali guys on here. If you are doing a big fatty house say with tons of frenchies, then the customer wants to add on a gutter clean or a house wash and you know that you can knock it out in a day but you are charging the guy over 500 dollars, do you technically need a contractor license? Or do you get around that by scheduling out for two days? Just wondering, because my handyman buddy posed this question to me and i didnt know what to really say to him.
I have no idea, you might want to ask MR. Craig Aldrich
In California, a contractors license is required for post-construction window cleaning (not for maintenance cleaning) $500 and above.
A contractors license is required for home improvement (construction industry.)
What kind of contractors license do you need to do ccu Larry?
