Delaware HOA services — questions, answered

Which statute governs HOAs in Delaware?+
Delaware Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act, 25 Del. C. § 81-101 et seq.. A Uniform Act state covering planned communities, condominiums, and cooperatives. Your own declaration and bylaws sit on top of it and may be stricter.
Does Delaware set reserve or competitive-bidding requirements?+
Read Delaware Uniform Common Interest Ownership Act, 25 Del. C. § 81-101 et seq. alongside your declaration, bylaws, and any lender or insurer requirements — each of those can impose reserve funding or competitive bidding on your association, and statutes change. Confirm what applies to Delaware communities, and to yours specifically, with counsel.
Who licenses the contractors an association hires in Delaware?+
Delaware Division of Professional Regulation, with business licensing through the Division of Revenue — trade licensing; Delaware does not issue a single statewide general-contractor license. Every vendor’s insurance and trade credentials are collected, verified, and stored with their expiry dates, and held to a stated renewal window — 30 days for insurance, none for a competency certification. Once that window closes, the vendor cannot bid for or be awarded new work until it is current again.
Who regulates community pools in Delaware?+
Delaware Division of Public Health — public pool permitting, operation, and inspection. That is why pool scope on HOAcrew includes water-quality records and operator credentials, not just cleaning visits.
Is HOAcrew available here?+
Available to communities nationwide. Bring your own vendors anywhere; our vetted network is growing market by market.
Do you have vendors near me?+
Two ways it works. Invite the vendors you already use — they get credentialed and onboarded here, anywhere in the US. And where our vetted network has reached, additional vetted vendors can submit proposals too. Our network is growing market by market, so bringing your own vendor is always the fastest path.
