Hiring a General Contractor in Tallahassee, Florida

In Florida, general contractors are regulated by the Construction Industry Licensing Board under the Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Contractors must hold either a certificate of competency (certified contractor, with an occupation code beginning with C) to work statewide, or a registration with the specific jurisdiction where they work (registered contractor, with an occupation code beginning with R). A general contractor is responsible for work that includes construction, repair, alteration, remodeling, additions, demolition, or improvements to buildings and structures for others or for resale.

Before you hire, verify the contractor's license status and any disciplinary history through the Florida DBPR license search at myfloridalicense.com/wl11.asp. You can search by contractor name, license number, or city. This public database shows whether a license is active and in good standing.

Work involving new construction, remodels, or additions must comply with the Florida Building Code. Ask your contractor about permit requirements for your specific project and who will handle submissions to the local building department.

What license type do I need to verify for a general contractor in Florida?

Look for either a certified contractor license (occupation code beginning with C), which allows work anywhere in the state, or a registered contractor license (beginning with R), which is valid only in the specific jurisdiction where it was issued. [1]

How do I check whether a contractor's license is current?

Visit the Florida DBPR license search portal at myfloridalicense.com/wl11.asp and search by the contractor's name or license number. The database shows active licenses and any disciplinary history. [2]

Do I need a permit for a remodeling or addition project?

Work involving remodels and additions must comply with the Florida Building Code. Ask your contractor about permit requirements for your specific project scope. [3, 4]

What should I ask a general contractor about licensing?

Ask for their license number and type (certified or registered), and verify it through the DBPR license search before signing a contract. Also confirm who will obtain and manage building permits. [1, 2]
