CONTRACTOR: Any person who undertakes with or for another person within the City to erect, construct, structurally alter, repair, or add to a residential or commercial structure upon any lot or parcel of land within the City of Duncan.
A. The following are not contractors within the meaning of this definition:
1. Persons who have a valid certificate or license for other specialized trades required by this Code and provided the work performed falls under the requirements of that certification.
2. Residential owners of property are not required to obtain a building contractor's registration certificate when performing work on their own property provided all work is performed by the owner, except for required specialized trade contractors who hold a valid certificate or license from the City of Duncan.
