Event Description:
On July 1, 2009, the Home Improvement Consumer Protection Act becomes effective in Pennsylvania. This Act provides for sweeping regulation of the home improvement industry including mandatory registration of certain contractors who are engaged in a home improvement business. The Act also provides for an expansion of consumer protection rights, as well as significant penalties for violations under the Act.
If you perform what has been defined as “home improvement work” for a total cash price of more than $500, then you won’t want to miss this seminar. Think this Act doesn’t apply to you, think again. According to this Act, “home improvements” include but are not limited to driveways, pools, security systems, roofs, fences, sheds, most landscaping, and the installation of central heating or air condition, storm windows or awnings.
It’s a new year and sweeping changes in Pennsylvania will affect home improvement contractors. Will you be ready? We will provide you with insight on the Act and what you must do in order to ensure you are in compliance. Learn about:
• Who must register
• How to register
• Contract requirements
• Advertising requirements
• Insurance requirements
• Criminal penalties
Whether you are a remodelor, landscaper, roofer, drywaller or painter, you won’t want to miss our informative discussion on key issues that will impact your business.
