Why Hiring a Licensed Contractor in Arizona Matters

Getting licensed in Arizona isn’t easy—and that’s a good thing.

To earn a contractor’s license, applicants must pass rigorous exams covering contractor law, building codes, state regulations, and construction best practices. It typically takes 6–12 months of study to prepare. Applicants must also prove at least five years of trade experience, pass criminal and credit background checks, and secure a surety bond to ensure projects are completed to standard.

Don’t Risk It:
What Homeowners Lose by Hiring an Unlicensed Handyman

1. No Access to Recovery Funds

If you hire an unlicensed handyman and something goes wrong, you forfeit your right to file a claim with the Arizona Registrar of Contractors (ROC) Recovery Fund. This fund helps homeowners recover lost deposits or costs from defective work—but only when the contractor is properly licensed.

2. No Warranty

Unlicensed work offers no enforceable warranty. We stand behind our work with a 2-year workmanship warranty on every job. If there’s ever an issue, you’ll have a staffed office to call and a local team ready to help.

3. Risk of Project Shutdown

ROC enforcement agents actively inspect job sites and vehicles for compliance. If they find unlicensed work, they can legally shut down your project mid-way. We’ve been called in many times to clean up and finish jobs after homeowners were left stranded by a cease-and-desist order against an unlicensed handyman.

4. Liability for Injuries

Many unlicensed handymen lack proper insurance, especially workers’ compensation. If someone is injured on your property, you could be held financially responsible through your homeowners insurance.

5. Insurance Coverage Gaps

Hiring an unlicensed handyman can void your homeowners insurance policy if something goes wrong. Many policies treat you as the general contractor if your worker isn’t licensed—leaving you exposed to liability for damages or medical costs.
