I know all states are different with their regulations regarding trades and I just wanted to share something that I found out recently here in CO.
I contacted the Electrical Board to inquire if labor could be subbed out on an electrical job. Essentially I was asking if I could just bring some guys on for a day or several and pay them as subs. My workload currently is such that I can't keep a full time guy busy (had to lay off my j-man) but I have things that definately need an extra set of hands in short bursts.
Their email reply was "The Board has determined that subcontractors are contractors and must, therefore, be electrical contractors with a qualifying master and an EC registration".
I've learned from this site that other states have similiar restrictions and I just wanted to let you CO ECs know this is what I found out.
FWIW.
