Warning Signs
Beware of contractors purporting to be the fastest or the cheapest, because hiring them may result in poor workmanship, inferior materials or unfinished jobs. Such claims are also warning signs of unlicensed activity. >> Unlicensed individuals often target the uninformed and inexperienced, as well as the elderly. >> Unlicensed individuals frequently travel in unmarked vehicles, soliciting door to door. >> They often give a post office box address instead of a street address. >> They demand large payments up front, ask for cash payments, ask for full payment before the work is completed, and convince homeowners to get the necessary building permits. To verify a contractor’s license or file a complaint against a contractor, call 1.850.487.1395 or go to the department’s website at: www.MyFloridaLicense.com. To report unlicensed activity: Call toll-free, 1.866.532.1440. To contact the Florida Bar Attorney Referral Services, call toll-free, 1.800.342.8011.
