Legal restrictions limit this service to small-to-medium jobs, ensuring safety and regulatory compliance.
Are teams sent for work?
No—each job under $1,000 is performed by a single technician, ensuring consistency and compliance with legal requirements. Licensed contractors would be necessary for larger jobs requiring multiple workers.
Why are projects over $1,000 not accepted?
California law (January 2025) allows unlicensed individuals to complete jobs up to $1,000. Any larger project:
-
Requires a licensed contractor (per CSLB regulations)
-
May need permits, inspections, or additional liability coverage
