Every Credential, Fully Explained
Below is a plain-language explanation of each credential TJC Remodeling holds, what it covers, and why it matters for your project and your home.
Arizona ROC Contractor License
Issued by the Arizona Registrar of Contractors • State of Arizona
The Arizona Registrar of Contractors (ROC) licenses and regulates construction contractors in the state. To obtain an ROC license, a contractor must pass a trade examination, demonstrate financial responsibility, maintain a surety bond, carry insurance, and have a clean disciplinary record. Arizona law requires any contractor performing work valued at over $1,000 to be ROC licensed. Hiring an unlicensed contractor puts you at significant financial and legal risk.
Why This Protects You
- Confirms the contractor has passed Arizona’s trade competency exam
- Gives you the right to file a complaint with the ROC if work is defective
- The ROC can order corrective work or financial remedies on your behalf
- Verifiable in 30 seconds at roc.az.gov — search by company name
- Unlicensed contractors have zero accountability after the job is done
- Required by law for any Arizona remodeling project over $1,000
General Liability Insurance
Protects your property against accidental damage during construction
General liability insurance protects your home against accidental damage caused by our crew during construction. If a tool falls and cracks your bathroom floor outside the work area, if a pipe is accidentally nicked, if any property damage occurs as a result of our work — our insurance covers the cost of repairs. Without this coverage, you as the homeowner could be left holding the bill for any accidental damage a contractor causes on your property.
Why This Protects You
- Covers accidental damage to your home or belongings during the project
- Covers third-party bodily injury claims that might arise on your property
- You are never financially liable for accidents caused by our crew
- Certificate of insurance available to you upon request, before work begins
- An uninsured contractor’s accident becomes your homeowner’s insurance claim
- Required by TJC’s own standards — has never lapsed in 45+ years
Workers’ Compensation Insurance
Protects you from liability if a worker is injured at your home
This is the credential most homeowners don’t think to ask about — and the one that can cause the most financial harm if it’s missing. If a worker is injured on your property while working for a contractor who doesn’t carry workers’ comp, you as the homeowner can be held personally liable for their medical bills, lost wages, and disability claims. TJC carries workers’ compensation on every employee on every job. If someone on our crew is injured at your home, our insurance covers it completely — you have zero exposure.
Why This Is the Most Important Coverage to Check
- Without it, you could be personally liable for a worker’s injury at your home
- Medical bills, lost wages, and disability claims could fall on your homeowner’s policy
- Many contractors skip this because it’s expensive — TJC has never skipped it
- Covers all TJC employees — not just the lead, but every crew member
- Certificate of insurance available before work begins upon request
- The ROC verifies this coverage as part of license maintenance
Contractor’s Surety Bond
Financial protection if a contractor fails to complete work or pay subcontractors
A contractor’s surety bond is a financial guarantee required by the Arizona ROC. It protects homeowners in the event a licensed contractor fails to complete a project, abandons a job, or causes financial harm. The bond is held by a third-party surety company and can be claimed against if a contractor doesn’t fulfill their obligations. It’s not insurance for the contractor — it’s a protection mechanism for the homeowner, required as a condition of holding an active ROC license.
Why This Protects You
- Financial recourse if a contractor abandons your project mid-build
- Protection if a contractor fails to pay suppliers, causing a lien on your home
- Required by Arizona law to hold an active ROC license
- Verified automatically when you look up a contractor at roc.az.gov
- An unbonded contractor has no financial backstop for their obligations
- Part of TJC’s continuous credential maintenance since 1978
What Happens When You Hire the Wrong Contractor
Arizona has no shortage of contractors willing to work without proper credentials. Some do it to save money. Some don’t know the requirements. The result for homeowners is the same: significant financial and legal exposure that no one warns you about until it’s too late.
These aren’t hypothetical risks. The Arizona ROC handles thousands of complaints against unlicensed and uninsured contractors every year. Verifying credentials before signing a contract takes 5 minutes and can save you from financial disaster.
Uninsured contractor damages your property
Their lack of insurance becomes your homeowner’s insurance claim. Your rates go up. You pay the deductible. The contractor faces no consequences.
Worker injured at your home, no workers’ comp
You can be personally sued for the worker’s medical bills, lost wages, and long-term disability. Your homeowner’s policy may not cover it.
Unlicensed contractor abandons the job
No ROC to complain to. No bond to claim against. No license to threaten. You’re left with a half-finished bathroom and no legal recourse.
Unpermitted work found during home sale
Work done without required permits can block your home sale, require expensive tear-out and rebuild, and create title insurance issues.
With TJC: full credential protection on every job
Active ROC license, general liability, workers’ comp, and surety bond — all verifiable before you sign. 45+ years of continuous compliance.
🔍 How to Verify Any Arizona Contractor
Takes less than 5 minutes. Do this before hiring anyone — including us.
Go to roc.az.gov
The official Arizona Registrar of Contractors website. Free, public access, no login required.
Search by company name
Enter “TJC Remodeling” or the contractor’s business name in the license search field.
Confirm license is Active
Look for “Active” status. If it shows “Expired,” “Suspended,” or “Revoked” — do not hire them.
Check for complaints or discipline
The ROC database also shows any formal complaints or disciplinary actions filed against the contractor. A clean record matters.
Request a certificate of insurance
Ask the contractor for a current certificate of insurance showing general liability and workers’ comp. Any legitimate contractor will provide this without hesitation.

🔗 Verify TJC at roc.az.gov ↗What Arizona Law Requires of Contractors
Arizona’s contractor licensing laws are stricter than many states — but enforcement depends heavily on homeowners asking the right questions before work begins. Here’s what the law actually requires.
Any work over $1,000 requires an ROC license
Arizona law (A.R.S. § 32-1151) prohibits anyone from contracting for construction work valued at more than $1,000 without an active ROC license. This includes labor only.
License must be in the contractor’s legal business name
The name on the ROC license must match the name on your contract. If a contractor operates under a DBA (doing business as), the ROC record should reflect that.
Insurance is required to obtain and maintain an ROC license
The ROC requires proof of both general liability and workers’ compensation insurance as a condition of holding an active license. A lapsed license often means lapsed insurance.
Verbal contracts are enforceable but unwise
Arizona law allows verbal contracts for construction work, but a written contract with detailed scope, price, and timeline is your primary protection if a dispute arises. TJC always uses written proposals and contracts.
You can file a complaint with the ROC
If a licensed contractor performs defective work or abandons a project, you can file a formal complaint with the Arizona ROC. They have authority to investigate, order corrective work, and take disciplinary action against the license.

This is a hypothetical that doesn’t apply to TJC — our insurance has been continuously active since 1978. But to answer the general question: if an uninsured contractor damages your property or one of their workers is injured at your home, you as the homeowner bear the financial liability. That’s why verifying insurance before work begins is so important.
Yes. Our Arizona ROC license covers the full scope of residential remodeling work we perform — bathrooms, kitchens, tile, flooring, cabinet installation, and related structural, plumbing, and electrical work. The license is issued by classification, and ours covers the complete range of interior remodeling services we offer.
TJC Remodeling uses its own employed crew — not subcontractors — for the vast majority of work. In the rare case where a specialty trade (such as a licensed plumber or electrician for specific code-required work) is brought in, we verify their credentials before they set foot on your job site. Every person working on your project through TJC is either our own employee or a verified licensed trade.
You have every right to file a complaint with the Arizona ROC if you believe TJC’s work is defective or that we’ve violated the terms of our contract. We’d strongly prefer you call Jake directly first — most issues are resolved faster that way — but the ROC complaint process exists as an additional layer of protection for you, and we fully support your right to use it.
