General contractors in Georgia must hold a state license from the Georgia State Licensing Board for Residential and Commercial General Contractors. Before hiring, verify that any contractor you're considering holds a valid license. You can check a Georgia professional license online using the Secretary of State's GOALS verification system at https://verify.sos.ga.gov/verification/ — search by the contractor's name or license number. This ensures the business is properly registered and in good standing.

Georgia licenses expire June 30 each year, with a late renewal window from July 1 to August 15. Contractors holding Residential Basic, Residential Light Commercial, or Commercial General Contractor licenses must complete continuing education to renew. When you contact a contractor, ask whether they hold the appropriate license type for your project scope—residential work may require different licensing than commercial or industrial jobs.

Before work begins, clarify whether the contractor will handle permitting and whether your project requires a building permit. Ask the contractor to explain their approach to code compliance and what inspections will be needed. Understanding these details upfront helps avoid delays and ensures your project meets all legal requirements.
