FAQ
Getting Additional Contractor's Licenses It's easy to fill out the application online. If you have questions, call the Nebraska State Electrical Division at 402-471-3507. Any contractor who works on asbestos projects in Nebraska needs to get a contractor's license with the Department of Health and Human Services.
Hiring subcontractors allows your business more flexibility than if you were to hire new, permanent employees. Rather than bringing them on for long term work, you hire the contractors to work on a few short term projects and then part ways. Be forewarned, sometimes they turn into a lifetime business relationship.
When clients hire you to work on a specific project or on a freelance basis, you are usually considered a contractor. You provide the labor, services, and sometimes whatever equipment is needed to get the project done.Subcontractors are companies or individual people that you hire to help you complete a project.
What Nebraska requires of contractors is relatively little, compared to other states. There is no required exam, but you are required to register with Nebraska's Department of Labor (DOL) via their website, providing specific business and identity information.
Nebraska Contractor Registration Information The Nebraska Contractor Registration Act requires contractors and subcontractors doing business in Nebraska to register with the Nebraska Department of Labor. While the registration is a requirement, it does not ensure quality of work or protect against fraud.
Differences Between a General Contractor vs Subcontractor As previously noted, a contractor is a multi-tasking manager of a construction project, expected to handle all the details and any issues that may arise, whereas a subcontractor would be hired to focus on a specific aspect of that same project.
A general contractor is responsible for providing all of the material, labor, equipment (such as engineering vehicles and tools) and services necessary for the construction of the project. A general contractor often hires specialized subcontractors to perform all or portions of the construction work.
Usually, anything that subcontractors would be liable for, general contractors may also be liable for (with the caveat that if the contractor has to pay for damages, the subcontractor who is legally responsible will often reimburse the general contractor).
