Let's say person A has a general contractor license. Let's say person B works for person A. Let's say person B deals with the whole construction project, makes estimates, signs paperwork with landlord, apply for city permits... but person B does NOT have a contractor license. Is this legal? Can person A hire an employee to oversee all the operations for a major construction project? I guess what I am asking is. Is it legal for a licensed contractor to hire unlicensed contractor? If so, what can the unlicensed contractor actually do? Can he oversee the whole operation?
