California requires contractors to hold a license from the Contractor State License Board (CSLB). General building contractors handle projects like remodels, additions, and new construction. Before hiring, check the contractor's license status online at the CSLB website using either the license number or business name. You can also search by the contractor's name. This lookup shows complaint disclosure and helps you verify the contractor is active and in good standing.

Los Angeles building projects typically require permits. The Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety manages permit approval and inspections for the city. Code requirements vary depending on the scope of work—kitchen and bathroom remodels, additions, framing, and new construction often need permits. Contact the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety or ask your contractor whether your specific project requires a permit before work begins.

When you hire a general contractor, ask about their license classification, verify it through the CSLB, and confirm they will handle permitting and inspections for your project. Discuss the scope—whether the contractor will self-perform work or hire subcontractors—and get the agreement in writing with clear terms.
