I filed a complaint a couple years ago about unlicensed "handyman contractors" advertising electrical work in a local publication. I don't really know whatever came of it as I only received a letter from the DBPR stating they were taking care of the situation and then heard nothing more.
And then recently, we have had a rash of unpermitted generator installations take place around the city. Though the process has been slow, we have been able to track down a few of the contractors involved. In most cases, it just results in double-permitting fees.
In this area, alot of the builders use multiple contractors. In many cases, the contractor listed on the sub-sheet doesn't match the actual contractor doing the work. We don't seem to enforce this issue, however it doesn't really seem to be a problem.
