• Requires contractors to maintain workers' compensation insurance, liability insurance of at least $500,000, and a surety bond; prohibits advertising or paying insurance deductibles as sales incentives and restricts unauthorized contract modifications.

• Establishes enforcement mechanisms including fines up to $1,000 per violation (or contract price plus administrative costs) and classifies violations as deceptive consumer practices under Ohio law.
