Georgia requires general contractors to hold a state license from the State Licensing Board for Residential and Commercial General Contractors. The board issues two main types: Residential Basic and Residential Light Commercial licenses for smaller projects, and Commercial General Contractor licenses for larger work. Each license type has its own eligibility requirements based on business structure, experience, and financial standing. Before hiring, verify that your contractor holds the appropriate license for your project scope.

You can check any Georgia contractor's license status online through the Secretary of State's GOALS portal, which lets you search by the contractor's name or license number. This free lookup confirms whether a license is current and in good standing. If you have concerns about a contractor's work or conduct, you may file a complaint with the State Licensing Board's Licensing Division.

General Contractor licenses in Georgia expire on June 30 each year. Contractors must complete continuing education hours for renewal, tracked through CE Broker. When you call for an estimate, ask whether the contractor holds a current license and what type—this tells you what scope of work they are approved to handle.
