Money – The Bottom-Line Price

All contracts must include the agreed-to price. Any job costing $500 or more (combined material and labor) needs a written home improvement contract.

By law, the job must be completed for the agreed-upon contract price. If the contract price needs to be changed, it MUST be done with a written change order that becomes a part of the contract.

Down Payment – If the contract calls for a down payment before work starts, the down payment
cannot be more than $1,000 or 10 percent of the contract price, whichever is less, for a home improvement job or swimming pool, excluding finance charges.

There are no exceptions for special order materials.

There is a down payment exception for about two dozen licensees who carry special bonds to protect consumers, known as blanket performance and payment bonds.

These exceptions are noted on
CSLB’s website.

Schedule of Payments

A home improvement contract must include a payment schedule. It should show the amount of each payment and explain what work, materials, or services are to be
performed for that payment.

Payments to the contractor cannot exceed the value of the performed work. Swimming Pools – A final swimming pool contract payment may be made at the completion of the final plastering phase of construction (provided that any installation of equipment, decking, or fencing required by the contract is also completed).

Finance Charges

If applicable, finance charges must be calculated and laid out in detail, separate from the contract amount.

Sales Commission

If the contract provides for payment of a salesperson’s commission as part of the contract price, that payment must be made on a pro-rata basis in proportion to the schedule of payments made to the contractor.

Salespersons

A salesperson cannot legally sign a home improvement contract for the contractor unless he or she is a valid, CSLB-registered home improvement salesperson (HIS).

Building Permits

A construction or building permit is a required document in most jurisdictions for a large range of project types, including new construction or adding to pre-existing structures, major renovations, heating, and air-conditioning repairs, and installation of water heaters and swimming pools. Permits are issued by the local building department. Generally, the new construction must be inspected during construction and after completion to ensure compliance with national, regional, and local building codes.

Failure to obtain a permit.

can result in significant fines and penalties, and even demolition of unauthorized construction if it does not meet code requirements.

A Word About Insurance

Does your contractor have employees? Workers’ compensation insurance is required by law if the contractor has employees or workers. Check the CSLB website, www.cslb.ca.gov, or www.CheckTheLicenseFirst.com to make sure the workers’ comp policy is current. Although not required, it’s also a good idea to ask whether the contractor carries general liability insurance in case your property accidentally is damaged during the project. You might consider contacting your homeowner insurance carrier to find out if it would be advisable to take out a temporary “rider” to your insurance policy, which is extended coverage for a determined period or for a particular use.

Canceling the Contract

Right, to Cancel the Home Solicitation Sales Act requires a seller of home goods or services to give the buyer three (3) business days (Or five business days if the buyer is 65 or older) to think about whether to buy the offered goods or services. To cancel, the buyer need only give the contractor written notice of his or her intent not to be bound by the contract and there is no penalty or obligation on the part of the buyer. Under state law, when the contract is canceled, the seller is required to return any money that was paid within 10 days of receiving the cancellation request. The consumer/buyer must return any materials to the contractor that were applied to the contract. The purpose of the right to cancel is to protect consumers from the pressure they often feel from in-home solicitors.

If the contract is negotiated at the contractor’s place of business, the three- or five-day right to cancel does not apply.

Service and Repair Contracts

One major exception to the three- or five-day right to cancel is a “service and repair” contract that covers emergency repairs or services that are requested by the consumer on short notice. The right to a cancelation notice is automatically voided the moment the contract is signed, and the contractor begins working on a service and repair contract.

Mechanics Liens

Consumers are required to receive a “Notice to Owner” warning about property liens.

Anyone who helps improve the property, but is not paid, may place what is called a mechanical lien on the property. A mechanics lien is a claim made against the property by the person who was not paid and is recorded with the county. Even if the contractor is paid in full, unpaid subcontractors, suppliers, and laborers involved in the project may record a mechanics lien and sue the property owner in court to foreclose the lien. A property owner could be forced to pay twice or have the court sell the home to pay the lien. Liens also can affect a consumer’s personal credit rating and affect his or her ability to borrow and refinance. themselves from liens by getting a list from the contractor of all subcontractors and material suppliers who will work on the project, along with the dates they will start and finish the work. Material suppliers and subcontractors are required to give the property owner a “Preliminary Notice” of their right to file a lien within 20 days of delivering products/materials or 20 days of beginning the work. Have subcontractors sign lien releases when their portion of the work is completed. Another option for consumers is to pay with a joint check that is payable to both the contractor and the subcontractor or material supplier.

Warranty

What warranty is a contractor required to provide under California Law? There are basically three warranties that are law in California. These warranties are defined in the CALIFORNIA BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS CODES and in the CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE. 

The one-year warranty: for new construction & remodels the standard “one-year expressed limited warranty” also known as the “Fit and Finish warranty” is an industry standard and a California law [CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE 900] and is considered an implied warranty. Even though the state has adopted a standard of warranty, a written warranty is always better. With a one-year written or implied warranty, you are required to file a complaint within the one-year period [CALIFORNIA BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS CODE SECTION 7091-c]. 

Four-year warranty: All contractors / all jobs A licensed contractor is required to give a warranty on items installed under his /her license to be free from defective installation including, but not limited to the local codes and manufacturer’s installation requirements for up to four years after the completion of a job. The claim may be made on any defect, either known or unknown, and discovered within the four-year period [CALIFORNIA BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS CODE SECTION 7091-a]. A licensed contractor can be held liable for repairs and damages caused by the defective installation. A licensed contractor who fails to meet the minimum installation requirements can be sued in a court of law and a complaint can be filed with the California State License Board.

Ten-year warranty: Structural defects A licensed contractor and/or the engineer on record is required to provide a warranty on certain engineered components that are to be free from engineering defects, miscalculations, or omissions. Such defects could be site stability, the integrity of the foundation, site retaining walls, roof framing, etc.… These defects may be considered Latent defects. Latent defects are defects that lay dormant and are undiscoverable without certain expertise or disaster. Such latent defects may include foundation settling, excessive sagging of beams or other framings which may be undersized, unusual site movement, etc.…

City fee’s

All payments for all city fees must be paid in full including a city service fee that will be added to every permit or city visit.

The City Service fee will be added to every project with no exceptions.

The service fee is covering the service to obtain a city permit, submit plans, city appointments, or any city service that is required.

The city service fee will be anywhere from $200.00 to $1000.00 and can be more depending on the situation.

[CALIFORNIA BUSINESS AND
PROFESSIONS CODE] SECTION 7091-in part 7091.

(a) A complaint against a
licensee alleging commission of any patent acts or omissions that may be
grounds for legal action shall be filed in writing with the registrar within
four years after the act or omission alleged as the ground for the disciplinary
action…

(b) A complaint against a
licensee alleging the commission of any latent acts or omissions that may be
grounds for legal action pursuant to subdivision (a) of Section 7109 regarding
structural defects, as defined by regulation, shall be filed in writing with
the registrar within 10 years after the act or omission alleged as the ground
for the disciplinary action…Where can I file a complaint? First, you are
required to notify the contractor in writing and allow him to inspect, evaluate
and make an offer to repair or settle the claim [CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE 917]. If
the contractor refuses to respond to your claim

or does not offer a reasonable
settlement or repair within a reasonable time frame, you may then consider
legal action [CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE 915]. Legal action may include Small Claims
court if the amount is under the limit of ($5,000 to $7,500 depending on the
claim) or you may wish to contact a construction defect attorney to pursue
civil damages.

Another option is contacting
the Contractors State License Board, which is the state consumer protection
agency that licenses and regulates construction contractors. If you file a
complaint against a licensed contractor within the legal deadline, CSLB has the
authority to investigate the complaint. If you use an unlicensed contractor,
CSLB may not be able to help you resolve your complaint. Your only remedy may
be in civil court, and you may be liable for damages arising out of any
injuries to the unlicensed contractor or the unlicensed contractor’s employees.

For Information about filing a
complaint to the Contractors State License Board:

Visit CSLB’s website at: www.cslb.ca.gov Call CSLB at 800-321-CSLB (2752) Write
CSLB at P.O. Box 26000, Sacramento, CA 95826, Or if you would like to lookup
California Law regarding your rights go to: www.leginfo.ca.gov/index.html

What if a contractor fails to
repair the defect or pay the settlement once I get a judgment or order?

If a licensed contractor fails
to pay a civil penalty or to comply with an order of correction or an order to
pay a specified sum either by court order or by CLSB action, a suspension of
his license per the CALIFORNIA BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONS CODE SECTION 7090.1 may
occur. Also, an attorney may be able to help collect a judgment. What is a
“Contractor’s License Bond?”

A contractor’s
bond guarantees
both job completion and payment of all labor and material. All contractors are
required to have a minimum $15,000 bond. Some bonds are designed to protect you
from substandard work that does not comply with local building codes. Check
with the CSLB if you wish to file a complaint against a licensed contractor and
pursue a contractor’s bond for reimbursement of a judgment.
