— What is the difference between a service trader and a contractor?
A general contractor is the entity supervising and planning every aspect of your project, whereas a service trader specializes in a special construction trade service, ranging from plumbing, electricity, solar, painting, roofing, insulation, drywall, tile-setting, stonework, pools, fire alarms, sprinklers and even bowling alley installation involved in any addition, remodelling, demolition, or excavation project.
— How does a prime contractor differ from a subcontractor on a project?
A prime contractor can be a company or an individual responsible for the entire project, required to complete the project on time and within the specified budget frame. Subcontractors are employed by the prime contractor for the purpose of completing a specific job as part of the project.
— A contractor must perform a minimum of two assignments in your home.
The law requires this, if they are coming for work in any capacity outside of framing or carpentry. In order to accept a prime contract or subcontract for a single trade outside of framing or carpentry, the general contractor must hold the appropriate license classification for the single trade or subcontracts with a contractor in possession of the appropriate licensing for performing the work.
Pursuant to Business and Professions Code section 7057, a “B” licensee (the most common contractor license classification in California) general building contractor may only accept a prime or subcontract involving trades other than framing and carpentry, wherein the contract requires two or more unrelated building trades or crafts—framing nor carpentry may be counted as one of the two trades and/or crafts.
On the other hand, a general contractor may accept a prime contract or subcontract wherein the contract is exclusively for framing and/or carpentry, sans any separate unrelated trade or craft.
