What is the limitation on a single project for an unlimited license?

An unlimited contractor's license in North Carolina allows the holder to undertake projects of any scope or value without a specific limitation on the size of a project. This means that they are not bound by a maximum dollar amount or scale for single projects, which distinguishes an unlimited license from limited or intermediate licenses that may impose such restrictions.

The misunderstanding regarding the limitation often arises from mixing the details of the license classifications. Some levels have specified monetary limits; however, the unlimited license is designed to provide the holder the flexibility to manage large-scale projects without constraint.

The idea of a limitation, such as the value "180," might refer to a particular aspect of a different license tier or to requirements related to a contractor's experience or ability to perform certain types of work. However, for an unlimited license, there is no cap on the financial expectations for a single project. Thus, it is vital to understand that holders of an unlimited license can operate across a broad spectrum of the construction industry without being restricted on a per-project basis.
