Hiring a General Contractor in Tallahassee, Florida
Florida's Construction Industry Licensing Board oversees contractor licensing and discipline. Before hiring, verify that your contractor holds an active license. A certified contractor—designated by an occupation code beginning with C—can work in any Florida jurisdiction. A registered contractor—code beginning with R—can work only in the jurisdiction where registered. You can search for active licenses at the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation online portal.
General contractors in Florida are responsible for the scope of work they contract for, including remodels, additions, alterations, demolition, and new construction. Knowing whether your contractor will self-perform work or hire subcontractors helps you understand who will be on your property and who oversees quality.
Florida requires permits for most construction work. Your contractor should handle permit applications and ensure the work meets the Florida Building Code. Ask your contractor to explain what permits your project needs and whether inspections will be required during and after construction.
How do I verify a contractor's Florida license?
Visit the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation license search portal at myfloridalicense.com. Search by the contractor's name, license number, or business city. Confirm the license is active and matches the scope of work you need. [1, 2]
What is the difference between a certified and registered contractor in Florida?
A certified contractor (code starting with C) holds a statewide certificate and can work anywhere in Florida without meeting individual jurisdiction requirements. A registered contractor (code starting with R) has met competency requirements for a specific jurisdiction and may only contract in that location. [1]
Will my project need a permit?
Most construction work in Florida requires a permit. Your contractor should identify which permits apply to your project—whether it is a remodel, addition, or new build—and submit applications. The work must comply with the Florida Building Code. [3, 4]
What should I ask a contractor before hiring?
Ask whether the contractor will self-perform the work or use subcontractors, confirm their license type and number, request a written scope of work, clarify what permits and inspections the project requires, and request references from similar projects. [1]
