Ala. Admin. Code r. 465-X-3-.04 - Licensing
(1)
Form of
License. Licenses shall be issued only to individuals,
partnerships, corporations, limited liability companies, and not-for-profit
organizations:
(a) An individual applying for
a license personally must satisfy all the licensure requirements.
(b) A partnership, corporation, limited
liability company, and not-for-profit organization applying for a license must
satisfy all licensure requirements.
1. A
general partnership, limited partnership, corporation, limited liability
company, or not-for-profit organization applying for a license must designate
as its qualifying representative an individual who is either a general partner
(in the case of any partnership) or an officer (in the case of a corporation)
or a member (in the case of a member managed limited liability company) or a
manager (in the case of a manager-managed limited liability company) and who
either holds a license individually or meets the experience and ability
requirements for licensure. The entity seeking the license may rely upon the
designated qualifying representative's experience, ability, and successful
completion of any examination (testing experience and ability, conducted either
by the Board or a third party under contract with the Board), but must present
evidence to the Board that it satisfies all other licensing requirements. The
name of the partnership, corporation, or limited liability company, along with
that of its designated qualifying representative, shall appear on the face of
that entity's license. 3-4
2. If
the designated qualifying representative of a partnership, corporation, or
limited liability company ceases for reasons other than provided for in section
1(b)3, to be a partner or officer or member (in the case of a member-managed
limited liability company) or manager (in the case of a manager-managed limited
liability company) of that entity, the designated qualifying representative and
the partnership, corporation, or limited liability company immediately shall so
notify the Board. Unless another partner, officer, or member (in the case of a
member-managed limited liability company) or manager (in the case of a
manager-managed limited liability company) as the case may be, who either
individually maintains a current and valid license or meets the experience and
ability requirements for licensure is designated as that entity's new
qualifying representative within 45 days after the previous designated
qualifying representative ceases to hold that position, the license for that
partnership, corporation, or limited liability company automatically shall be
revoked subject to a show cause hearing before the Board.
3. ln compliance with the Code of
Ala. 1975, Section 41-9A-3, if the designated qualifying
representative of a partnership, corporation, or limited liability company
ceases by death, mental or physical incapacitation to be a partner or officer
or member (in the case of a member managed limited liability company) or
manager {in the case of a manager-managed limited liability company) of that
entity, the partnership, corporation) or limited liability company may claim a
waiver of hardship for reasonable time to allow a person meeting the experience
and ability requirements to become the new designated qualifying representative
of the entity.
(i) The partnership,
corporation, or limited liability company shall so notify the Board and shall
submit the prescribed hardship waiver within 45 days of the designated
qualifying representative's death, mental incapacitation, or physical
incapacitation.
(ii) The submitted
waiver shall include an attached copy of an obituary or death certificate in
the instance of the death of the designated qualifying representative. The
submitted waiver request shall include hut not limited to attached
documentation from a diagnosing physician in the instance of mental or physical
incapacitation to include but not limited to diagnosis date. 3-5
(iii) Any hardship waiver submitted to the
Board after 45 days from the death or incapacitation of the designated
qualifying representative may be denied subject to a show cause hearing before
the Board.
(iv) A granted hardship
waiver shall be valid for no more than a maximum of 135 days after the date of
death or incapacitation of the designated qualifying representative.
(v) The waiver may not be extended, and the
license may be revoked subject to a show cause hearing before the
Board.
(vi) A fee equal to one-half
of the renewal fee for the license held by the entity may be assessed before
issuance of hardship waiver.
(vii)
If another partner, officer, or member (in the case of a member-managed
limited-liability company) or manager (in the case of a manager-managed limited
liability company) as the case may be, who either individually maintains a
current and valid license or meets the experience and ability requirements for
licensure is designated as that entity's new qualifying representative within
45 days after the previous designated qualifying representative ceases to hold
that position because of death, mental incapacity, or physical incapacity, then
entity may submit the proper change of qualifier form instead of the hardship
waiver.
(c) The
extent to which a residential home builder, including residential roofers, may
engage in the residential home building business depends upon the form of
license held:
1. A residential home builder,
including residential roofers, who is not licensed individually may engage in
the residential home building business only through a licensed partnership,
corporation, or limited liability company, of which the builder is an employee,
partner, officer, or member.
2. A
residential home builder, including residential roofers, who is the designated
qualifying representative of an entity may engage in the residential home
building business only through that entity; if such builder wishes to engage in
the residential home building business either individually or through another
entity that is not otherwise licensed, that 3-6 builder must obtain a license,
either individually or on behalf of the other entity, of which the builder may
be the designated qualifying representative. A residential home builder who is
the qualifying representative of an entity shall be deemed to have satisfied
the experience and ability requirements for licensure, but must satisfy all
other licensing requirements, including without limitation, the financial
responsibility requirements, before qualifying for a license either
individually or on behalf of another entity.
3. A residential home builder, including
residential roofers, licensed individually may engage in the residential home
building business either individually or through a licensed entity of which the
individual licensee is an employee, partner, officer, or member. EXAMPLES:
(i) ABC Builders, Inc. has three officers,
each of whom meets the experience and ability requirements for licensure. Adams
is the qualifying representative of the corporation. Brown individually meets
all the licensing requirements, including without limitation the financial
responsibility requirement, and obtains an individual license. Carter is not
licensed, either individually or as the qualifying representative of the
corporation. Adams and Carter may engage in the residential home building only
through ABC Builders, Inc., but Brown may do so either individually or through
ABC Builders, Inc.
(ii) Five years
after ABC Builders, Inc. was issued a license, Adams decides to engage in the
residential home building business through a newly formed partnership, Adams
Builders, of which he is a partner. Adams Builders applies for a license,
naming Adams as its qualifying representative. Because he is the qualifying
representative of ABC Builders, Inc., Adams is deemed to have satisfied the
experience and ability requirements for licensure, but Adams Builders will have
to satisfy all other requirements for licensure, including without limitation
the financial responsibility requirement.
(iii) Five years after ABC Builders, Inc.,
was issued a license, Carter decides to engage individually in the residential
home building business. Because Carter is neither the qualifying representative
of ABC Builders, Inc. nor licensed individually, Carter will have to satisfy
all of the 3-7 requirements for licensure, including the experience and ability
requirements, which means successful completion of any examination testing
experience and ability, conducted either by the Board or a third party under
contract with the Board.
(2)
Type of License.
(a) Licenses may be issued without
limitation, with limitation, or with limitation specifying a single trade. (b)
The extent to which a residential home builder, including a residential roofer,
may engage in the residential homebuilding business depends upon the type of
license held:
1. A residential home builder
who holds a current and valid residential home builders license without
limitation may engage in the business of residential home building, as
referred to in Code of Ala. 1975, §
34-14A-2(12),
regardless of the scope of the construction.
2. A residential home builder who holds a
current and valid residential home builders license with
limitation may only engage in the business of residential home building,
as referred to in Code of Ala. 1975,
§
34-14A-2(12), when the scope of the construction is limited to the
repair, improvement, or reimprovement, as such term is defined herein, of a
residence or structure, and the residential homebuilder does not meet the
definition of residential roofer as defined Code of Ala.1975,
§
34-14A-2(13), and the scope of the work does not meet the definition of
residential roofing as defined in Ala. Admin. Code r.
465-X-1-.01(10).
3. A residential
roofer, as defined in Code of Ala. 1975,
§
34-14A-2(13), who holds a current and valid residential roofers license
may only engage in residential roofing when the scope of the roofing is limited
to the installation or repair of the external covering of a residence or
structure.
EXAMPLES:
(i) Builder holds a current and valid
residential home builder's license without limitation. Builder may
contract directly with Homeowner to perform any residential construction
activity including new residential construction, and repair, improvement or
reimprovement to an existing residence. 3-8
(ii) Builder holds a current and valid
residential home builder's license without limitation. Builder
contracts directly with Homeowner to construct a new residence. The cost of the
undertaking is $250,000. Builder hires Framer to frame the new construction and
pays him $30,000. Framer is not required to hold a license issued
by the Board because he did not contract directly with the homeowner to perform
the construction activity, but instead is working directly for a residential
home builder who holds a license without limitation and who contracted directly
with the homeowner.
(iii) Framer
enters into a contract directly with Homeowner to frame an addition to an
existing residence. The cost of the undertaking is $30,000. Though only one
trade is being performed (framing), Framer must hold a current and valid
residential home builder's license without limitation because the
cost of the undertaking exceeds $10,000 and the construction activity affects
the structural integrity of the residence.
(iv) Foundation contractor enters into a
contract directly with Homeowner to construct a foundation for a residence. The
cost of the undertaking is $15,000. Though only one trade is being performed
(foundation construction), Foundation contractor must hold a current and valid
residential home builder's license without limitation because the
cost of the undertaking exceeds $10,000 and the construction activity affects
the structural integrity of the residence.
(v) Best Siding, LLC, enters into a contract
directly with Homeowner to install vinyl siding on Homeowner's residence. The
cost of the undertaking is $20,000. Best Siding, LLC, must hold a residential
home builder's license because the cost of the undertaking exceeds $10,000;
however, because the construction activity involves only one trade (siding
installation) and it does not affect the structural integrity of the existing
residence, Best Siding, LLC, may hold a residential home builders license
with limitation.
(vi)
Roofer enters into a contract directly with a Homeowner to repair storm damage
to at least one roof truss, which will require a framer, and to reroof a
residence. The cost of the undertaking is $11,000. Roofer is required to hold
a residential home builder's license without limitation because
more than one trade is involved, and the work affects the structural integrity
of the residence. 3-9
(vii) Roofer
enters into a contract directly with Homeowner to install a new roof, including
replacing only existing damaged decking and damaged fascia. The cost of the
undertaking is $8,000. Roofer must hold a residential home builders license
limited to roofing (roofers license) because the cost of the undertaking
exceeds $2,500; Because the construction activity involves only one trade (roof
installation, including replacing damaged decking and fascia) and it does not
affect the structural integrity of the residence, Roofer may hold a residential
home builders license with limitation, limited to
roofing.
(viii) Builder enters into
a contract directly with Homeowner to make repairs to a residence, including
painting and replacement of sheetrock. The cost of the undertaking is $8,500.
Though the construction activity involves more than one trade (painting, and
sheetrock replacement), Builder is not required to hold a license
issued by the Board because the cost of the undertaking does not exceed
$10,000. If the cost of the undertaking had exceeded $10,000, Builder would be
required to hold a residential home builder's license without
limitation because more than one trade is involved.
(3)

limitation (unlimited license), a residential home builder must
successfully complete the following actions:
(a) File an accurate, complete, timely, and
notarized application for license with the Board;

satisfaction and release.
4. Disclosure of Social Security Number. All
licensure applications, including new and renewal licensure applications, have
a space for the disclosure of an individual's social security number.
(i) The disclosure of an individual's social
