Hiring Commercial Property Services Providers in Utah

Commercial real estate services in Utah demand vendors who clear Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing hurdles. Insist on a B100 General Building or E100 General Engineering license for structural or multi-trade scopes, with specialty S-classifications—S350 HVAC, S200 Plumbing, S202 Electrical—where applicable, and verify the contractor can pull permits with Salt Lake City Building Services or other municipal agencies. Soft-service firms—janitorial, porter, xeriscape landscaping, pest control, security patrol, parking management, waste hauling, or snow removal—must hold a Utah business license; security companies need Bureau of Security Licensing credentials, and pesticide applicators a Utah Department of Agriculture certification. Demand $2 million general liability for trades and $1 million for nightly cleaning, statutory workers’ comp, and E&O for architects or seismic consultants. Confirm OSHA fall-protection and high-altitude safety plans, Department of Environmental Quality storm-water compliance, and International Energy Conservation Code adherence. Favor vendors with proven results on Silicon Slopes offices, ski-resort hospitality, or Ogden industrial assets, and secure local references.
