Hiring a Landscaper in San Francisco, California
In California, landscaping contractors must be licensed by the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). A C-27 Landscaping Contractor license covers landscape work and related services. Before you hire, verify that a contractor holds a valid C-27 license by checking the CSLB online license lookup tool. You can search by contractor name or license number to confirm their status and view any complaint disclosures.
To use the CSLB license checker, go to their online services portal and search either by contractor license number (up to 8 digits, no letters) or business name. If searching by name, type the last name first if applicable. The tool will show you the license status and any relevant complaint history.
Building permits may be required for certain landscape and outdoor construction work depending on your project scope and location. Code requirements vary across San Francisco and California. Contact your local building department to confirm whether your specific project needs a permit before work begins. Ask your contractor whether they will handle the permit application or if you need to obtain one yourself.
