New Roofing Law In California
Starting tomorrow (1/1/07), a new law takes effect in California that requires all roofing contractors to carry Worker’s Comp. Any contractor with an active C-39 license must comply with the new law “regardless of whether or not they have employees.”
Where this might really make an impact is on roofing consultants that are involved as experts on construction defect cases. There are many consulting firms with no employees - SHCC is one. But if that firm relies upon a C-39 Roofing contracting license, they must obtain worker’s comp coverage or show proof of self-insurance, or face losing their license.
