Section 34-14A-1 Legislative intent. In the interest of the public health, safety, welfare,
and consumer protection and to regulate the home building and private residence construction
industry, the purpose of this chapter, and the intent of the Legislature in passing it, is
to provide for the licensure of those persons who engage in home building, private residence
construction, and home improvement industries, including remodeling, and to provide home building
standards and to support education within the construction trades in the State of Alabama.
The Legislature recognizes that the home building and home improvement construction industries

building services. The Legislature finds it necessary to regulate the residential home building
and home improvement industries. (Acts 1992, No. 92-608,...

Section 24-4A-1 Legislative findings; purpose of chapter. The Legislature hereby finds that
in an effort to meet the housing needs within the state, the private housing and construction
industry has developed mass production techniques which can substantially reduce a housing
and building cost, and that the mass production of housing and buildings consisting primarily
of factory manufacture presents unique problems with respect to the establishment of uniform
health and safety standards and inspection procedures. The Legislature further finds that
by minimizing the problems of standards and inspection procedures, it is demonstrating its
intention to encourage the reduction of manufactured building construction costs, and to make
housing and home ownership more feasible for all residents of the state. (Acts 1981, No. 81-706,
p. 1183, §1.)...
