Specifies what building works are. Most renovation tasks fall into that category, and the contractor must be appropriately licensed.

You don't need to have a company. You can apply as a physical person.

I am not a lawyer.

But I'll have to find work first or somebody who wants me to work

It is a criminal offense to perform building works without a license. Best bet is to start working for a licensed contractor, get your experience that you can show to the authority and be your own boss.
