Yes, the S260 license includes decorative concrete finishes like stamped or colored concrete, as long as the work is non-structural and falls within the scope of concrete flatwork. No additional license is typically needed for this.
If you’re overseeing the full project and self-performing any part of the work (like grading, prep, or finishing), you’re still responsible for licensing compliance. In most cases, yes—you would still need the S260 license to remain compliant with DOPL regulations.
Yes, the S260 license qualifies you to bid on public projects that fall within the scope of asphalt and concrete work. Just ensure you meet any additional bonding, insurance, or registration requirements specific to government contracts.
Photos of completed jobs, before-and-after comparisons, project bids or invoices, and signed letters from past employers or clients can all help verify your experience. Aim to include a variety of job types to show the breadth of your expertise.
No, a single general liability policy can cover both asphalt and concrete services under the S260 license. However, you should confirm with your insurance provider that your policy reflects the specific risks of both service types.
Yes, surface maintenance like sealing, striping, patching, and crack repair is included under the S260 license, as long as it doesn’t involve structural work. These are common service add-ons for contractors in this trade.
If your general contractor license does not specifically include the scope of asphalt and concrete work, then yes—you’ll need the S260 classification added. Utah requires contractors to hold the proper trade classification for any work they self-perform.
