(concurring in the result):
Although I concur with the majority opinion that the plaintiffs cannot recover on the contract because of U.C.A., 1953, section 58A-1-26 (1983 Pocket Supp.), I do not believe that the door to equity has been closed by that provision to the extent that an unlicensed contractor should not be allowed to recover in quantum meruit for the fair value of whatever the defendants received. However, it does not appear that *770the plaintiffs sought this remedy in the trial court, although it is not possible to ascertain because the case came on appeal without a transcript.
The majority addresses the plaintiffs’ contention that they should be able to recover for unjust enrichment. The majority opinion suggests that the defendants’ lack of knowledge that the plaintiffs were unlicensed is somehow dispositive of the issue. I think that the defendants’ lack of knowledge is irrelevant. In all events, the issue of unjust enrichment is not properly before the Court.
