The only way you can legally do work in the city of Phila., is to be licensed. Can't pull a permit w/out it. Phila is a strong union town so you have to be very careful if you do work w/out permits. Plus the city has been cracking down on alot of the 'bogus' things that go on! Inspectors are tougher and the city can be a pain. As far as experience, I dont think they will let you take the exam if you have less than 5 yrs experience, but I could be mistaken. I cannot remember everything they asked me. I hope this helps.
