Yes, but the ID is not licensed to agree to provide plumbing and electrical services directly for the homeowner; instead, the owner should have entered into those agreements.

Subject: [CLC-Discussion] Interior decorator license

I have a client with an interior decorator license who hired a licensed plumber and electrician to do some simple work, eg: replacing sink, hanging lighting fixtures, etc. in connection with a larger design project. Homeowner refuses to pay saying she acted as a general contractor which is beyond the scope of her license. Any thoughts?

They can act as a project manager and owner's representative.  There's a fine line and it depends on the contract.
