Purpose of the Jobsite Inspection When the Registrar receives a complaint against a contractor’s license alleging poor workmanship, the Registrar generally schedules a Jobsite Inspection. The Jobsite Inspection serves two purposes: 1. To give the contractor an opportunity to inspect the complaint items; and 2. To give the Registrar an opportunity to determine if the contractor’s work violates Arizona law.
Jobsite Inspection Rights and Responsibilities Access to inspect: The property owner has complete control over who they allow on the property. However, if the Registrar’s investigator or the contractor cannot inspect the work, the Registrar will not move forward with a citation.
Cooperation: Arizona law enables injured parties to seek relief for damages through several paths. When dealing with a licensed contractor, the Registrar of Contractors’ administrative complaint process may serve as one of those possible paths. However, in order to use that path, the Registrar relies on the cooperation of all parties to a complaint.
Minimum workmanship: The Registrar investigates workmanship complaints for compliance with minimum workmanship and professional industry standards. The Registrar does not issue citations for work that meets these standards.
Scope: The scope of the Jobsite Inspection is limited to items listed in the complaint filed with the Registrar’s office. It is the complainant’s responsibility to point out the complaint item(s) and the Investigators role to review the item(s). If the complainant identifies additional workmanship items not listed in the original complaint, they must file an addendum to the complaint. The Registrar’s Investigator may identify additional administrative violations by the contractor (e.g. work performed out of scope of the license and failure to provide a contract that meets requirements set by Arizona law) at the time of the inspection.
The Role of the Investigator At the Jobsite Inspection, the Registrar’s investigator will: ● Only investigate the items listed on the complaint form filed with the Registrar. ● Will gather evidence to make an informed decision about the complaint items.
What to expect after a Jobsite Inspection After doing a Jobsite Inspection, the Registrar’s Investigator will leave the jobsite and review the evidence provided during the inspection. Generally, the investigator does not make any determination at the time of the jobsite inspection regarding whether the allegations listed in the complaint are supported. ● If the allegations are confirmed, the Registrar’s Investigator may issue a Written Directive telling the contractor to correct the poor or incomplete work. ● If the allegations are not confirmed, the Registrar’s Investigator will close the complaint.
Questions? If you have already filed a complaint and it was assigned to an investigator, you are encouraged to contact that investigator directly with the information listed in your jobsite inspection letter. If you have not filed a complaint yet or have not been assigned an investigator, you can reach the Registrar’s compliance department at (877) 692-9762. 1700 W. Washington Street, Suite 105 · Phoenix AZ 85007-2812 602.542.1525 · Toll Free 877.692.9762 · roc.az.gov C008 05/21 A Guide to Written Directives Purpose of the Jobsite Inspection When the Registrar receives a complaint against a contractor’s license, the Registrar generally schedules a Jobsite Inspection.

Written Directives Access: In order to use the administrative process offered by the Registrar, a property owner must provide reasonable access to allow the contractor to fix their work as directed by the Registrar in a Written Directive. Complainants may not put any additional, unnecessary restrictions on the Respondent above and beyond the initial contract requirements agreed upon at the beginning of the project. Respondents are required to make repairs on items identified on any Written Directive, not otherwise restricted by local code or HOA limitations. Complainants must make access available to the Respondent to make the required repairs and failure to provide reasonable access may result in the Registrar dismissing the complaint.
Contractor obligations: The Written Directive will set a deadline for compliance. This is the period of time determined by the Investigator as necessary to complete the items listed in the Directive. ● The deadline for compliance assumes the contractor will promptly begin working on the items listed in the Directive. ● Do not wait. Both parties should communicate quickly to schedule the work.
Extensions: If good cause exists to extend this deadline, either party may submit a written request to the Investigator. The Registrar will review requests for extension and determine if the Directive should be extended.
Manner and method of performance: The Registrar does not provide specific instructions for how to correct poor work. A licensed contractor is expected to have the skill and professionalism to complete the work. Moreover, the complainant may not dictate the manner of repair. If the contractor fails to appropriately correct the work according to the contract, the Registrar will issue a citation.
Compliance Inspection: After the Written Directive expires, the Registrar’s Investigator will contact the complainant to determine if the contractor performed any corrective work. ● If the contractor did corrective work, the Investigator may schedule a Compliance Inspection to determine if the poor work is corrected. ● If the contractor did not perform any corrective work, the Registrar’s Investigator will not do a Compliance Inspection and will determine whether to issue a citation based on the administrative record.
Work performed after the directive ends: After the Directive period ends, a property owner may choose to allow the contractor to continue its work. The Registrar encourages parties to work cooperatively, but cannot 1700 W.

Per Tuscon(project manager/ salesman) who came and collected to deposit money on 10/12/2023 and gave us a verbal contract that they would start in two weeks from deposit of the check and it would take 7 workings days to complete. About a month went by with no communication and we spoke with Legacy again in November stating that he was going to have the fence completed before thanksgiving. After no start of work we told them that we needed to get our money back and go with a new company. The owner Daylyn then contacted us saying that legacy gave us start dates that no one in the o ce knew about and that a contract was send and needed to be signed.

He told us that the work would start on 12/18/23 and be completed by 12/23/23. Since the “o cial” start date from Daylyn they have torn down our back fence. Had a temporary fence installed but it was laying on the ground not securing my backyard for 6 days a footer has been poured on 12/28. Since that day no work has been completed. No fence was not put back up. I the homeworker had to try and put he fence back up to secure my backyard. We had multiple golfers come into our backyard to get golf balls and my kids went out on the golf course multiple times. Since then Legacy has stated that the company does not have any money to purchase any more materials for this job. That they are locked out of their accounts at the bank. I was told by Legacy on the phone that they are trying to get more sales from other customers to back pay for our job. Legacy has since said that they are going to deliver block on site multiple times and there is no show or no delivery. The project manager at Legacy asked us if we could buy the block and fence and they would deduct if from the total price of the project.

Demand for Completion of Contractual Obligations and Resolution of Outstanding Matters
Dear Mr. McGauley,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address the unresolved issues surrounding our contractual agreement and the commencement of work on your project. As per our discussions and agreements, on October 11, 2023, you issued a deposit payment in the amount of $6,970.50 (Check #23440), and subsequently signed Quote #1904 on October 20, 2023. These actions constituted a binding commitment to proceed with the outlined project in accordance with the terms and conditions stipulated within our company's standard contract. However, despite multiple attempts to finalize the contract and commence work, you have expressed reluctance to sign the required documentation necessary for compliance with the regulatory requirements of the Arizona Registrar of Contractors (ROC), and other relevant statutes. Your email communication dated December 13, 2023, explicitly stated your refusal to proceed with the project under the existing contractual framework. Nonetheless, in a gesture of good faith and a desire to facilitate progress, we proceeded with certain aspects of the project, incurring substantial expenses. Notably, we engaged labor to dismantle the existing
Received 3/30/2024 EXHIBIT B - CITATION RESPONSE ROC Legal
wall and fence, undertook excavation for the footing, installed rebar, and procured specialized equipment such as a concrete truck and pump for the concrete work.
Furthermore, your request for a change order cannot be accommodated without a formalized contract in place. Despite our offer to amend the contract and engage in negotiations to address any concerns you may have, you have failed to engage in this process. Your subsequent threats of legal action and complaints to the Arizona Registrar of Contractors (ROC) have only served to exacerbate the situation. We wish to remind you that we are fully committed to resolving this matter amicably and in compliance with all applicable regulations.
In light of the impending ROC meeting scheduled for today, February 27, 2024, at 12:00 PM, we hereby demand the following courses of action: 1. Promptly sign and execute the attached contract, thereby reaffirming your commitment to the project and enabling us to proceed with the remaining work. 2. Alternatively, provide an amended contract reflecting any desired modifications, which we are willing to negotiate in good faith. 3. In the event that you choose not to proceed with the project under the existing terms, you agree to paying for the cost of all materials including concrete and concrete pump on site, you also agree to all labor provided, as well as office administration work, all with a reasonable margin added to the total. Any remaining funds shall be reimbursed to you promptly. If there is a negative reimbursement, this will be met with an invoice promptly. Please be advised that your current actions may be in violation of the following Arizona statutes:
ARS § 32-1154: Failure to enter into a written contract as required by law. ARS § 32-1157: Failure to provide a written change order for additional work requested by the homeowner. ARS § 32-1161: Failure to comply with the requirements of the Arizona Registrar of Contractors. Furthermore, your actions constitute a breach of contract: Your refusal to sign the change order constitutes a breach of our contract. The contract explicitly outlines the scope of work, including any modifications or alterations. We kindly request that you promptly review and sign the necessary change order to ensure alignment with the project’s evolving requirements. Written Change Order Requirements: Arizona law emphasizes the importance of written change orders in construction projects. To protect both parties’ interests, we must follow the established procedure for any deviations from the original contract. Cardinal Change Doctrine: Insisting on completing work without proper documentation may trigger the cardinal change doctrine. Significant deviations from the original agreement could have legal implications. Let us work together to ensure transparency and clarity throughout the project.
Received
EXHIBIT B - CITATION RESPONSE 3/30/2024 ROC Legal
Timely Notice and Good Faith: Written change orders provide timely notice to adjust project scope, budget, and timeline. We value open communication and expect all changes to be documented promptly. Your cooperation in this matter is crucial to maintaining a positive working relationship.
Rights After Suspension of License (ARS § 32-1161): If your license was suspended due to any of the grounds specified in ARS § 32-1154, you have the right to seek renewal. The registrar will renew your license upon proof of compliance with provisions related to license renewal or upon proper showing that all loss caused by the act or omission (for which the license was suspended) has been fully satisfied. Legal Remedies and Consequences: Failure to comply with contractual obligations and legal requirements may result in legal action. We hope to resolve this matter amicably, but we are prepared to pursue appropriate remedies if necessary. This demand letter, along with the accompanying exhibits and documentation, will be served in person by our employee, Tucson Freeman, at the aforementioned ROC meeting. We intend for this correspondence to serve as a formal legal notice of our intentions and to ensure full compliance with all regulatory requirements.
We remain eager to fulfill our contractual obligations and bring this matter to a satisfactory resolution. Should you have any questions or require further clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Dear Mr. Wiskow,
I am writing in response to your 20240228 C013b Warning Letter dated February 28, 2024, regarding Complaint No. 2024-00820 and License No. ROC 333553. We appreciate your diligence in investigating the matter, but we must respectfully dispute the assertions made in your letter.
First and foremost, we want to clarify that all individuals present on the jobsite in question are bona fide employees of Legacy Contracting LLC. We have not engaged in any business activities with unlicensed entities, nor have we allowed any unauthorized use of our license. The suggestion that we are in violation of A.R.S. §§ 32-1154(A)(9) and (13) is unfounded and without merit.
Your letter implies that we provided assurances regarding payroll documentation for individuals from South Dakota yet failed to deliver such documentation. However, we must emphasize that no such assurances were made from any member/owner, as there were no unlicensed individuals from South Dakota or elsewhere involved in our operations. Therefore, the absence of documentation cannot be construed as evidence of wrongdoing on our part. Received 3/30/2024 EXHIBIT B - CITATION RESPONSE ROC Legal
We are deeply concerned about the implications of your letter and request further clarification on the basis of these allegations against Legacy Contracting LLC. If there has been any misunderstanding or misinformation, we urge you to provide us with the opportunity to address it promptly.
Additionally, we will be including Michael's warning letter "20240228 C013b WARNING LETTER" as "EXHIBIT A" for your reference.
Furthermore, if we do not receive a response or further clarification regarding Complaint No. 2024-00820 C013b Warning Letter within 10 business days, we will then consider this matter closed.
Furthermore, we will be mailing a certified copy of this statement to your address listed, as well as to Mr. Kyle McGauley's address. Additionally, this statement will be emailed to both yourself and Mr. Kyle McGauley.
Until such time as these matters are resolved satisfactorily, we expect any references to potential violations by our company to be retracted or amended accordingly. We take pride in our commitment to compliance with all relevant regulations and laws governing our industry and will vigorously defend our reputation against any unjust accusations.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you require any additional information or clarification on this matter. We look forward to your prompt response and resolution of this issue.

I am writing in response to your 20240228 C013b Warning Letter dated February 28, 2024, regarding Complaint No. 2024-00820 and License No. ROC 333553. While we appreciate the diligence of the Registrar in investigating the matter, we respectfully contest the allegations outlined in your letter.
Regarding the issue of building permits for the project located at 17222 N Fairway Ct., Glendale, AZ 85308, we wish to clarify that the necessary permits are indeed being pursued. Contrary to the assertion in your letter, we have taken proactive steps to address this matter. On February 29th, 2024, a completed permit was obtained, signed, dated, and stamped, which we will provide as "EXHIBIT B" for your reference.
Furthermore, we have provided evidence of our efforts to communicate with Mr. Kyle McGauley regarding the project, including the delivery of contractual documents, as witnessed by yourself on February 28, 2024. This documentation was sent via USPS-certified mail and hand-delivered to Mr. McGauley's property in accordance with Arizona law. We believe these actions demonstrate our commitment to compliance and transparency in our dealings.
We understand the seriousness of compliance with building codes and regulations and assure you that we have been diligently working to meet all requirements. However, we have refrained from procuring the permit until Mr. McGauley responds to the options outlined in our letter, which we believe are fair and in the best interest of the customer.
In light of the evidence provided and our ongoing efforts to address the matter, we respectfully request that you consider dropping the warning letter if no further factual data or accusations are forthcoming. We believe that our compliance efforts and the completion of the permit demonstrate our commitment to resolving this issue in good faith. Received 3/30/2024 EXHIBIT B - CITATION RESPONSE ROC Legal
Please find attached "EXHIBIT A" containing your warning letter and "EXHIBIT B" containing the completed permit for your review. We will also mail a certified copy of this statement to your address listed as well as to Mr. Kyle McGauley's address. Additionally, this statement will be emailed to yourself and Mr. Kyle McGauley.

Dear Mr. Wiskow,
I am writing in response to the 20240228 C013f Warning Letter dated February 28, 2024, concerning Complaint No. 2024-00820 and License No. ROC 333553. While I appreciate your thoroughness in investigating the matter, I must respectfully contest the assertions outlined in your letter.
Firstly, regarding the alleged violation of A.R.S. § 32-1158(A), I wish to clarify that our contract with the property owner indeed includes all nine required elements as stipulated by the statute. This information was verbally communicated to you during our in-person conversation, in the presence of Mr. Kyle McCauley, and witnessed by all parties involved. We have provided evidence of this compliance through various means:
A. The original contract was sent to the customer, Mr. Kyle McGauley, on December 13, 2023, which is labeled as "EXHIBIT A." Despite our efforts, Mr. McGauley declined the contract on December 20, 2023.
B. Furthermore, on February 28, 2024, we hand-delivered the contract along with a demand letter to Mr. McGauley. This delivery was witnessed by yourself, Mr. Michael Wiskow, where Tucson Freeman, our representative, verbally stated the contents of the enclosed envelope. We will provide this as "EXHIBIT B." Received 3/30/2024
EXHIBIT B - CITATION RESPONSE ROC Legal
C. During the delivery, Mr. McGauley's father intervened aggressively, threatening to discard the documents. However, the documents were retrieved, and we proceeded to mail them via certified mail, which we will demonstrate as "EXHIBIT C."
D. Additionally, a second demand letter was issued to Mr. McGauley, offering three options for his consideration, along with the original contract, which will be labeled as "EXHIBIT E."
Furthermore, we assert that the original contract sent to Mr. McGauley, labeled as "EXHIBIT D," is fully compliant with the requirements of A.R.S. § 32-1158(A) and all relevant AZROC standards, codes, and statutes.
Given the provided evidence, we respectfully demand that all allegations outlined in your warning letter be retracted and considered closed. Should you require further clarification or documentation, we stand ready to provide it promptly.
Furthermore, if we do not receive a response or further clarification regarding Complaint No. 2024-00820 C013b Warning Letter within 10 business days, we will then consider this matter closed.
Please note that a copy of this response will be emailed to all parties involved, in addition to being sent via certified mail through USPS.

In response to the email sent: Per Statute, the Registrar must allow at least 15 days to satisfy a directive. This has been done. In the interest of the complainant, who filed the complaint, they need to be allowed to participate in a timely complaint process in the event a contractor does not complete a directive in a timely manner.
The Registrar denies the claim that we have ignored you.
