Before you sign: Nevada
Nevada requires a license from the Nevada State Contractors Board for almost any kitchen remodel. The law exempts only repair or maintenance work worth less than $1,000 in labor and materials, and not even that when the job needs a building permit, is plumbing, electrical, heating or air-conditioning work, or is part of a project worth $500 or more.
