Hiring a General Contractor in West Palm Beach, Florida

Before you hire any general contractor in Florida, check whether they hold a valid state license. The Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board regulates contractors and issues two main license types: certified and registered. A certified contractor holds a certificate of competency and may contract anywhere in the state; a registered contractor has met competency requirements for their specific jurisdiction only. You can verify any contractor's license status for free using the Florida DBPR license search tool at myfloridalicense.com.

When you call a contractor, ask which type of license they hold and get their license number. You can then search the DBPR database by name or license number to confirm the license is active and in good standing. This step takes minutes and protects you from unlicensed work.

Most construction work in Florida requires a permit and must comply with the Florida Building Code. Ask your contractor whether permits are needed for your scope of work and who will obtain them. A contractor should be able to explain the permitting process and any building-code requirements that apply to your project.
