For what minimum amount is a license required for electrical and/or mechanical contracts?

  1. $5,000

  2. $10,000

  3. $15,000

  4. $20,000

The correct answer is: $10,000

A license is required for electrical and/or mechanical contracts when the total value of the contract is $10,000 or more. This threshold is established to ensure that contractors possess the necessary skills, knowledge, and regulatory compliance needed to handle projects of significant size and complexity. By requiring a license at this amount, the state aims to protect both the public and the integrity of the industry, ensuring that only qualified individuals engage in these potentially hazardous and technically demanding fields. Recognizing this requirement is crucial for contractors and helps maintain a standard of quality and safety in construction practices.
