Depending on the scope of work – the unlicensed status could be an issue with permits.
I’ve had issues with contractors. If I had to do it again I would go owner-builder… and hire licensed subcontractors.
One advantage to licensed contractors is they have bonds… it’s a point of recourse if they try to screw you.
They also can’t ask for more than $1k up front – and you pay for work completed…unlicensed folks don’t have to play by the rules.
