Is Hiring an Unlicensed Contractor in California Illegal? The California Contractor's State License Law protects homeowners against unlicensed contractors. It is illegal for an unlicensed person to perform contracting work on any project valued at $500 or more in combined labor and material costs.

Reporting Building Permit Complaints Use the Building Permit Violation Referral form to report any contractor who fails to pull a project building permit for construction activity on an active job site. After completing the form you may attach it to an email and send it to the appropriate SWIFT office.

Unlicensed contractors and unpermitted work To report unlicensed contractors or unpermitted work, use 311's online form or call 311. If you're outside Philadelphia, call (215) 686-8686 instead. After you've filed a report with 311, you can submit more information to addinfoli@phila.gov.

A person who uses an unlicensed contractor may sue the contractor to recover all money paid for the work they performed. A contractor may not sue a property owner to recover compensation for work on a contract unless he or she was licensed at all times while performing the work.

Those who are caught contracting without a license likely will have to appear before a Superior Court judge to answer to misdemeanor charges that can carry a potential sentence of up to six months in jail and/or a $5,000 fine, as well as an administrative fine of $200 to $15,000.
