As an unlicensed contractor, you are not entitled to charge $4,200 in labor and the homeowner can sue to get their money back. The maximum you can charge for a job is $500 for materials and labor. It doesn't matter that you disclosed that you were not licensed and it doesn't matter that you were doing someone a favor.
