Before you sign: Utah
Utah exempts remodeling work under $7,000 in labor and materials from the contractor’s license, but the plumbing and electrical parts of such a job must still be done by licensed plumbing and electrical contractors, and a person doing a job over $3,000 without a license must have filed proof of liability insurance with the state.
