Best Answer

A professional handyman in Maryland should hold a General Contractors license, which is issued by the Maryland Home Improvement Commission. In order to bid on a job or enter into a contract with a homeowner, one must have a license. If, however, you wish to pay someone directly to do work on your house, you may do so - but you have no legal recourse if he does not complete the work, does the work poorly, does damage to your home, steals from you, or get hurts on the job. For this and many other reasons, it is highly advisable that you only hire professionals who are "licensed, bonded, and insured."
