West Virginia HB4084 mandates written contracts for residential construction work by licensed contractors.

West Virginia HB4084 amends the West Virginia Contractor Licensing Act to require a written contract between a licensed contractor and the owner or lessee of residential property. The contract must detail the work to be performed, the cost, and be signed by both parties. It also mandates that contractors provide their contact information, license details, and completion date. If the contractor fails to meet the completion date, a refund rate must be specified. The bill aims to protect homeowners by ensuring transparency and accountability in residential construction contracts.
