    I have found it interested that, when getting quotes for work, I advise that I will be doing a check on license numbers.  They don't call back with the quote.  The license checks find that, though they were once in possession of a valid license, they no longer are. 

    The threat of fines I believe would not stop an unlicensed tradesperson.  You have to find them first to take action.  Better to check it out beforehand.
