Contractors

---

  Professional regulation will help establish a basic level of competency to expect from licensed contractors.  The added barriers to getting a license will also help weed out the less upstanding companies that may undercut your price because they don't operate ethically.  Penalties and judgements are attached to the individual, so buying another license won't be an option.

  It will also help your company's image as a licensed contractor who has been vetted by a more formal process than paying a simple fee. 

  Disputes about workmanship may be settled out of court if the board finds your work to meet the contract and building code; there's potential for lower legal expenses.  

  The board and the regulations around it can help improve the performance, resilience, and longevity of homes which leads to a happier customer.
