Licensing & Regulatory Compliance

At WeReplacePoolLights.com, we believe in transparency and providing high-quality service at a price that makes sense for Arizona homeowners. To ensure we offer the most competitive rates, we operate strictly within the parameters of Arizona's "Handyman Exception."

The Handyman Exception (A.R.S. § 32-1121)

Our work is performed in accordance with Arizona Revised Statutes § 32-1121(A)(14). This specific provision of Arizona law allows individuals or companies to perform projects of a "casual, ad hoc, or minor nature" without a contractor's license, provided the work meets strict financial and safety criteria.

By operating under this exception, we significantly reduce our administrative overhead. These savings are passed directly to you, allowing us to provide specialized pool light replacement services at a fraction of the cost charged by large-scale contracting firms.

Our Compliance Standards

To remain in full compliance with Arizona law and to ensure the safety and satisfaction of our clients, we adhere to the following rules:

The $1,000 Project Limit

Per state law, the total contract price for any single project—including all labor, materials, and taxes—must be less than $1,000. We do not accept or perform any jobs that exceed this legal threshold.

Minor Maintenance & Repair

Our services are focused exclusively on the replacement of existing pool lighting components. We specialize in "plug-and-play" or direct-fit replacements of bulbs and fixtures.

No Major Trades

We do not perform work that requires a specific trade license or a municipal building permit. This includes:

• New electrical circuit installation or panel upgrades.
• Complex plumbing or structural modifications.
• HVAC or major mechanical system repairs.

Licensed vs. Unlicensed Status

WeReplacePoolLights.com is not a licensed contractor in the State of Arizona. Under A.R.S. § 32-1121, we are not required to hold a contractor's license because our work is limited to minor, low-cost maintenance tasks. We focus on doing one thing exceptionally well—replacing pool lights—while staying strictly within the legal boundaries established by the Arizona Registrar of Contractors (ROC).

Why Choose Us?

Our goal is to provide a professional, reliable, and affordable alternative for minor pool maintenance. When you hire us, you can expect:

• Direct Savings: No "contractor markups" or high minimum-service fees.
• Specialization: Because we focus solely on lighting, we have deep expertise in the most common pool light models used in Arizona.
• Integrity: If we inspect your pool and determine that the issue requires a licensed electrician or major repair, we will inform you immediately so you can hire the appropriate professional.
