I have always wanted to start my own Restoration and cleaning business and was looking into a franchise but that turned out to be so incredibly expensive that I realized that I could help my community more if I were my own business as I would have more pricing flexibility than a franchise. So after doing Restoration and cleaning work since 2007, in 2018 I gave up on a franchise and knew the quality of my work will show and help me be more successful. My goal is to put the customer first on all jobs and ensure that there is always communication, get the job done as efficiently and effectively as possible. In August of 2018 Utopia Restoration LLC was born with the help of some family and we have been successfully serving our community since.
New Jersey state laws require any contractors or subcontractors who sell or make home improvements to be registered with compliance to "Contractors' Registration Act".
However, construction permits are issued, as before, by the municipalities in which contractors are working.
A Contractor must be sure to use a written contract if a project costs more than $500.
Any person who makes improvement project of a home he(she) or his(her) family member owns is not required to registered as contractor.
Before hiring a contractor, make sure that they have a valid license and that their skills are appropriate for the job you are planning.
