As an out-of-state builder or remodeler, how can I help rebuild parts of Texas affected by Hurricane Ike?
Texas law requires residential builders and remodelers in Texas to have a business address in the state and to register with the commission; however, the commission encourages those out-of-state builders and remodelers that want to help to work with a registered builder or remodeler. By working with a registered Texas builder or remodeler, out-of-state contractors can begin work quickly and without the need to proceed through the commission’s registration process.
It is important that out-of-state builders work with a Texas builder or remodeler because law requires residential construction projects to be warranted for up to ten years. For purposes of consumer protection, if a consumer needs warranty work performed after a project is completed, it is imperative that the consumer is able to locate his or her Texas-registered builder or remodeler.
