Hiring tip

Insulation work may involve older materials that require special handling. Verify the contractor follows Cal/OSHA safety requirements and carries appropriate insurance. Ask whether the insulation type meets current California energy code standards.

California law requires a contractor license for this type of work on projects valued at $500 or more (combined labor and materials). Hiring an unlicensed contractor for work requiring a license may void your consumer protections.
