Attention ROC Customers

EFFECTIVE MARCH 1, 2012, CONTRACTORS ATTEMPTING LICENSE RENEWALS THAT HAVE CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT (CDs) ON FILE IN LIEU OF SURETY OR CASH BONDS must provide the most recent bank statement from the issuing financial institution that the Certificate of Deposit (CD) is current and in good standing pursuant to ARS 32-1152.A & ARS 32-1152.01.A or provide a cash or surety bond instead.

Advertising Requirements

The advertising requirements of the statute does not prevent anyone from placing an ad in the yellow pages, on business cards, or on flyers.

What it does require under A.R.S. §32-1121A14(c), is that the advertising party, if not properly licensed as a contractor, disclose that fact on any form of advertising to the public by including the words "not a licensed contractor" in the advertisement.

Again, this requirement is intended to make sure that the consumer is made aware of the unlicensed status of the individual or company.

Contractors who advertise and do not disclose their unlicensed status are not eligible for the handyman's exception.
