Starting an Construction LLC .
Unless you are a construction contractor and or you perform any major structural construction work such as framing or big room addtions, you will only need to following for small handyman or small construction projects.
However, anything bigger may subject you to obtaining a construction contractors license, which requires an exam to obtain.
As the majority of  Construction businesses, 99.9%, you will need an occupational business license even if you obtain a free LLC filing or you incorporate. In addition, you may need a federal tax ID number, and if you sell any Construction and Landscape services merchandise, you will need a resale tax ID number.
Also note that all  Construction LLC s need an occupational business license.
Also, if the LLC has more than one member, or you will file a tax return for the LLC as a corporation as opposed as a disregarded entity, you will need a federal tax ID number for the LLC .
Starting a business fist step is to choose the tax legal structure.
There are three major ones:
1. Sole proprietor, ( if you are one and want to stay sole, you need to file a trade name or file an LLC )
2. Partnership, ( if you are one, you need to file a trade name and get a federal tax id number or file an LLC and get a federal tax id number) and
3. Corporation or Limited Liability Company.
All small, home or  Construction, even web based businesses as well as big businesses must choose and register as on of the above.

What limits the liability?
