What work can I legally do as a Journeyman. - 08/16/05 09:00 PM
I'm from Michigan. I get alot of jobs from word of mouth. A few jobs I have lost because of no insurance or ability to pull permits.
I would like to know what work I can legally perform.
I would like to get a contractors license and liability insurance. I also think I need to regester a company name to get the contractors license.
If I do all of the above. Will I be able to legally perfom any work? I've currently just did 'side jobs', or had the homeowner pull the permits, and a few instances where a friend (master electrician) pull the permits under his company.
Is there any loop holes or anything.
My current understanding is, I'm not suppose to perform any work, and If I get caught I could get my license taken away?
This is my first start to researching this besides a few phone numbers for insurance, contractors license, and where to register a business.
So please help me understand this better and let me know what I can do. Thanks.
