Non liscensed contractors
Can non liscensed contractors legally enter into a contract for home repairs in VA or should it be the liscensed contractor that signs the contract?

The licensed contrator, obviously, should be the one whose signature is on the contract.

If signed by a nonlicensed contractor it will be illegal and unenforceable unless the construction has been engaged in substantially and the contractor proceeded with good faith that no license was required.
