Landscape work in Florida falls under the Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB), which regulates contractors. Depending on the scope of work—whether it involves structural changes, electrical connections, or other specialized work—a contractor may need to be licensed as a certified or registered contractor. A certified contractor holds a statewide certificate of competency, while a registered contractor is licensed only for specific jurisdictions. You can verify a contractor's license status and any disciplinary history through the Florida Department of Business & Professional Regulation.

Before hiring, search for the contractor's name or license number on the DBPR licensing portal at myfloridalicense.com. This confirms active licensing and reveals any complaints or disciplinary actions. Ask your contractor whether their work requires a license for your jurisdiction and request proof of current licensing. If electrical connections are involved in lighting installation, verify that the appropriate licensed professional is handling that portion of the work.

Florida's building code applies to outdoor lighting projects. While many residential lighting installations are straightforward, some designs—especially those involving structural support, wiring, or commercial work—may require inspection. Ask whether your project needs a building permit and whether the contractor obtains it. The Florida Building Code is maintained by the state and enforced locally; your city or county building department can confirm permit requirements for your specific project.
