Before hiring a painting contractor in California, check with your local building department to determine whether your project requires a permit. Code requirements vary by city and county, so what one jurisdiction requires may differ from another. The San Francisco building department can advise whether your interior or exterior painting work needs a permit.

In California, painting and decorating contractors are classified under the C-33 license category. You can verify a contractor's license and complaint history through the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) before signing a contract. A valid contractor license number contains only numeric characters and does not exceed 8 digits.

When evaluating a contractor, ask to see their plastic pocket license and verify the license number online through CSLB. Review the contract terms carefully, including scope of work, timeline, and payment schedule. CSLB recommends you complete this verification and review before committing to any agreement.
