Hi everyone:
I have a complaint against me through the contractors state license board because I did not pull a building permit to install a few grab bars in a residence. There was no other work done. The only work done was to take 4-5 grab bars out of their boxes and screw them into the wall studs, pick up the trash and leave. End of story. There were two complaints, one was that I installed bars vertically and not horizontally (no room and no studs behind), then the state added that I had not pulled a permit. Grab bars can be installed any which way you want, verytically, horizontally, angled, etc. so that went nowhere but this "no permit" thing really startled me. I have NEVER pulled a permit for grab bars and don't know why I would have to since I am not altering the structure in any way.
Anyone have any info?
Thanks Tim
