Why Unverified Contractors Cost More
Supplier Debt Lawsuits
Cheap contractors often rob Peter to pay Paul. When they default on lumber bills for your project, Virginia law allows suppliers to sue you directly for the balance.
Stop Work Orders
City inspectors patrol Virginia daily. Unpermitted work gets red-tagged immediately. You will pay **double permit fees** plus administrative fines to resolve it.
Bankruptcy Risk
A single injury on your property can exceed your homeowner's liability cap. Uninsured 'handymen' expose your personal savings to massive medical claims.
