Absolutely, without question.
yes yes and yes
Employees do not need to be licensed in the State of Florida as long as the contractor is licensed for the work they are employing individuals to perform. Further the contractor must carry all insurance to cover employees in terms of liability and workers comp.
All subcontractors however must have a least a business license/ business tax receipt (the name varies in different geographic areas) but are also exempt from having a contracting license as long as the contractor hiring them is licensed for the work the subcontractor has been hired to perform.
In the State of Florida if each employee were required to hold their state license in whichever trade they are being employed for there would be virtually no one to work in the construction field.
As a business owner, you must always validate the contractors or companies you hire to sub work. Our company holds several licenses in-house, which is beneficial to the effectiveness of managing projects and the efficiency of communication between trades. However, when we have a project that requires a subcontractor to complete a specific need, then the contractor must be licensed, bonded and insured. But, beyond those requirements, verify the intangibles such as integrity, timeliness, professionalism, etc., because a company can meet the requirements and still not produce the results expected. Great question, Materio Family Contracting!
