Bill overview
This bill updates California law to strengthen consumer protections in home improvement contracts. Specifically, it requires home improvement contracts to clearly disclose whether a subcontractor will be used, and it clarifies that the prime contractor is ultimately responsible for the project's completion, even if subcontractors are involved. The bill also mandates specific disclosures and notices within the contract, including information about insurance, liens, and cancellation rights, and incorporates changes from AB 1327.
