Tips for dealing with contractors The Contractors state license board has guides and pamphlets to help you in you dealings with contractors. The logo link below will take you to the Guides and Pamphlets page of the Department of Consumer affairs. 
Tip: Contractors can only ask for a down payment of 10 percent of the cost of the job or $ 1,000.00 whichever figure is less. Tip: All contractors are required to post there license number on all advertisements. Including there truck if they are advertising on it. All California state contractors license numbers have six digits. If any numbers are missing or there are extra numbers the contractor may not be what they say they are. Tip: You can tell how long a contractor has been licensed by how low his or her number is. The lower the number the longer the contractor has been in business legally. If a contractor has a number that starts in the eights or nine hundred thousands then the contractor is a newly licensed contractor.
Tips on permits and fence laws. Tip: A fence within the first 16' of a street or driveway. Can "legally" only be 4' high with the top 1' being 80 percent open. Tip:
A side or back fence can only be 6' high without a permit. If you want to go up
to 8' high, all building departments will require you to get a permit. If both
side or back neighbors are on friendly terms and agree to the fence being above
6' in height then you problity will not have a problem if you don't get a permit. Most building departments will not red tag a fence at 7'-8' high unless someone complains about it, but it can happen. **** A note of caution when using Home Depot pressure treated fir lumber for ground contact projects like fencing. Home depot pressure treated fir lumber is not rated for ground contact. They only carry .21 rated pressure treated fir lumber you need at least .40 P.T.F. lumber for ground contact. You can find the sticker with its rating stapled to the end of each piece of lumber..
