Generally, I wil pull a permit for the entire job and some towns will require the subs to come in and sign on to the permit.

 

Similar to what Eric said. We pull the construction permit, electrical, plumbing and HVAC have to show-up and show their licenses. It also depends on what jurisdiction (out of 23 jurisdictions we’re licensed in) some could care less about subs.

That's pretty much how It works here . If all the others have comp .Licenses and Liability . It's a go!

 

This company wants a lot of renovations, but I'm far to busy at this point to take on any more work. He says he would like for me to pull the permits and be a construction manager. Not sure if the risk is worth the reward. He said he has a crew that's has workers comp.

 

I guess if they list me on their certificate of liability from their general liability insurance, I would be ok. I just really haven't done to much of that. I was wondering if anyone has had a bad experience doing it this way.

 

The licensed contractor who pulls the permit is on the hook in Florida. That's a lot of risk.

 

His company, he gets the permits under his license. He's transferring the liability to you.

Thanks for the input

 

We have the subs pull their own and copy us on the permit and all inspection reports.

Seems like this person needs what we call a primary qualifying agent. We in florida who are said persons have to be responsible for all financial matters on the job. I'd check and see if their is a way to elect a financial responsible officer. Do you want to own a percentage of the corporation or just be an employee. Check with your governing entity for licenses. I'd still not do it for free or for little.

I'll gladly pull a permit for anyone who has the rest of their credentials in order.

 

I pull all permits building and MEP in my company name. My subs never go to the city.

 

I always pull permits for the whole job, but licensed trades like electricians and plumbers must fill out their own sheet with their license and put their seal, but everything under one permit.
