  2. Only for 2 weeks

  3. Sometimes

  4. No

The correct answer is: No

Loaning or borrowing a contractor's license is prohibited under Utah law. Each contractor's license is tied to an individual or business entity and is issued based on specific qualifications, background checks, and experience. Allowing someone else to use your license undermines the integrity of the licensing system and poses significant liability and legal risks. Moreover, using someone else's license can lead to misrepresentation and fraud, which can result in severe penalties for both parties involved. It can jeopardize the standing of the license holder, lead to fines, or even result in the revocation of the license. Maintaining the integrity and personal accountability of the license ensures that all contractors are held to the same professional standards, safeguarding both the public and the industry as a whole.
