Well, it could be 20 questions, but this contractor will require a ‘special’ answer many can learn from before they send that application in. Knowing how rule interpretation changes over time is the reason why Capitol Services is the expert in assisting contractors. Another type of change has one contractor looking to get off the ‘roofing’……
Back to the future as we remind an aspiring applicant to ‘just say no,’ until the license is in his pocket! Let me ‘translate’ this because it may be foreign to you, but it’s an English-only contractor’s exam, and another contractor makes an interesting point but his reasoning doesn’t hold ‘water’… Q: I recently purchased a painting…
Let’s jet! An interesting question will require an additional expert in creating this ‘structure’ change. A sudden loss will prompt a need for change in license status. While it’s not good advice to argue with the law, sometimes it’s a ‘singular’ point to be made… Q: If a company water jets a septic/sewage line, is a Contractor’s…
Speak up, it’s your opportunity for input, because contractors have their cards on the ‘table’. Another contractor has gotten the ‘cart before the horse’ so to speak, while a license applicant will have to delay his travel plan until he’s told ‘when’ to get moving… Q: Do you know if there is a data table of licensed…
Does every rule have an exception? Yes, it would seem so. Can a General ‘lumberjack’ project land?

We are applying for a “C-4” (Boiler, Hot Water Heating and Steam Fitting) license. We are…
I take a ‘shine’ to our first contractor question. A lesson on adding too much to your ‘official’ title description, and another inquiry holds a reminder on the contractor exam process… Q: My company has a “B” license which we use to do Solar contracting. My employee holds the license, but I want to replace him on the…
We ‘double down’ with our first contractor who has more than one concern. A ‘slick’ answer for an industrial inquiry, with a ‘big easy’ response for a future Californian… Q: We currently have a “C-6” (Cabinet, Millwork and Finish Carpentry) license. We need to add the “C-5” (Framing and Rough Carpentry) classification because one of our clients will…
What the company wants the company gets! Another contractor gets a ‘stranger things’ feeling, while another gets ‘referred’ for a second opinion. A reminder for all contractors on ‘reciprocity’ state by state… Q: My company wanted me to ask whether a CSLB licensed Class “A” Engineering Contractor can obtain a classification as a Class “B” General Building…
