Contractors State License Board Takes 73 Enforcement Actions as Part of Multi-State Sting and Sweep Effort to Protect Consumers

SACRAMENTO, CA – The Contractors State License Board (CSLB) recently completed a combined 39 separate stings and sweeps resulting in 73 enforcement actions across the state, part of a coordinated, multi-state initiative organized by the National Association of State Contractors Licensing Agencies (NASCLA). California was one of 15 states that participated in the effort to crack down on unlicensed activity and protect consumers.   

CSLB partnered with local law enforcement to conduct enforcement operations, known as stings and sweeps, to combat unlicensed activity and address compliance. Unlicensed individuals often seek to take advantage of consumers by offering services without the legally required licenses or workers’ compensation insurance, leaving homeowners responsible for any accidents or damages that occur.
