What is the maximum monetary limit for projects that can be performed under a Class C specialty contractor license in Hawaii?
Correct Answer
C) No monetary limit
Class C specialty contractors in Hawaii have no monetary limit on projects within their specialty classification.
Why This Is the Correct Answer
Hawaii's Class C specialty contractor license has no monetary ceiling on project size within the licensee's approved specialty trade. The restriction is on scope of work (must stay within the specialty), not on the dollar amount of the contract.
Why the Other Options Are Wrong
Option A: $1,000,000 per project
$1,000,000 per project is a fabricated threshold. Hawaii law does not impose a $1 million cap on Class C specialty work.
Option B: $500,000 per project
$500,000 per project is not a threshold established under Hawaii contractor licensing statutes for Class C holders.
Option D: $250,000 per project
$250,000 per project is not a statutory monetary cap for Class C specialty contractors. This figure might be confused with bond or insurance thresholds in other states.
Memory Technique
Class C = 'Craft-specific, Cash-unlimited.' A Class C plumber can work on a $5 million plumbing job as long as they only touch the plumbing.
