Hiring a General Contractor in Tallahassee, Florida

In Florida, general contractors who undertake construction, demolition, repair, or remodeling work for others must be licensed by the Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB), a division of the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Before hiring any contractor, verify their license through the official DBPR license search at myfloridalicense.com.

Florida recognizes two contractor license types: certified contractors, who hold a certificate of competency and may work in any Florida jurisdiction, and registered contractors, who fulfill competency requirements for specific jurisdictions only. You can search by the contractor's name, license number, or city to confirm their license status and scope of work.

For projects involving demolition of buildings over three stories, structures over 50 feet in height, or steel towers over 50 feet, ensure your contractor's license covers that scope. Check that your contractor understands local permitting requirements and the Florida Building Code applicable to your project type.

How do I verify a contractor's license in Florida?

Visit myfloridalicense.com and use the license search tool. You can search by contractor name, license number, or city. The search will show whether the contractor is licensed, their license type, and any disciplinary history. [1, 2]

What is the difference between a certified and registered contractor license?

A certified contractor holds a certificate of competency and may contract anywhere in Florida. A registered contractor has met competency requirements for a specific jurisdiction and may only work in that jurisdiction. License codes beginning with 'C' indicate certified; those beginning with 'R' indicate registered. [1]

Do I need a permit for demolition work in Florida?

Permit requirements depend on the type and size of the demolition. The Florida Building Code and local ordinances govern permit thresholds. Your contractor should be familiar with these rules for your project. [3, 4]

What should I ask a general contractor before hiring?

Verify their license through the DBPR website, confirm they are insured and bonded, ask whether their license scope covers your specific project type (especially for large demolition or structural work), and request references from past jobs similar to yours. [1, 2]
