Disclaimer: It's always a good idea to ask any contractor that works for you to show you their "pocket license" that shows the type of trade they are licensed for and the license's expiration date.  Also, you can call the Contractor's State License Board at  800-321-2752  or visit   California State License Board  to verify all information. And, the D.A.'s consumer protection unit is  415-499-6495 .   The following list includes some trades people, such as handymen, that may not be licensed.  We've either worked with them or have had other Realtors suggest we consider their services.  Please post any comments you'd like to make (we will update information, add/delete trades people based on your comments/post).  Although we have worked personally with many of the people and companies you'll see listed below, we hope that you'll take the time to talk to and interview the people in this directory. We are offering their contact information, as a way to begin your search, when looking for reputable trades people here in Marin County.  Please feel free to email or call us in this regard if you have any questions.
