Hiring a General Contractor in Boca Raton, Florida

In Florida, general contractors must be licensed by the Construction Industry Licensing Board under the Department of Business & Professional Regulation. The board oversees two main contractor types: certified contractors (designated with a code starting with C) can work anywhere in Florida after meeting statewide competency standards, while registered contractors (code starting with R) must meet requirements specific to the jurisdiction where they work. Before hiring, verify which type your contractor holds—this determines their authority to work in your area.

You can search Florida's license database online at MyFloridaLicense.com to confirm a contractor's active license and status. A general contractor's scope covers construction, repair, alteration, remodeling, addition, and demolition work. When you call Florida Building and Remodeling at (561) 487-8686, ask whether they hold a certified or registered license and request their license number so you can verify it independently.

Florida building projects typically require permits and must follow the Florida Building Code. Ask your contractor whether they'll handle permitting and code compliance as part of the project.
