LICENSED AND BONDED contractor needed for an interior rehab project (bathroom, living room, kitchen, floors) located in Los Angeles just south of the 10 freeway & Normandy. Prefer a locally based for obvious reasons. References will a great thing to have.

Francis A. ALL CA licensed contractors ARE bonded, it is a CSLB requirement, but not all are INSURED. If you want someone who understands violations and someone who can remove that without being a pain in the behind, that's another story.
I have it solved. AAGLA is a great resource. I highly recommend it.
Side note: I am almost willing to bet that there are more unlicensed contractors working in SoCal than there are licensed. It's just a wild guess but I'm almost sure that might be a correct stat.

@Francis A. I have no idea, there is no list of unlicensed contractors. lol. If I'll be investing a MF, then i'll be sure to keep AAGLA in mind, we don't do private work at the moment.
