Contractors: unlicensed work.

Summary

The bill revises California’s contractor licensing law so a contractor can only be barred from payment for the periods they worked without a license, rather than the entire job. It also narrows the right of property owners to recover money paid to unlicensed contractors, applying the narrower rule to private residential work of 25 units or fewer. The changes are intended to protect consumers while giving contractors a fair chance to be paid for work done while properly licensed.
