Georgia's State Licensing Board for Residential and Commercial General Contractors oversees contractor licensure. The state issues different license types for residential and commercial work—Residential Basic, Residential Light Commercial, and Commercial General Contractor licenses each have distinct requirements. Before hiring, verify that your contractor holds the appropriate license type for your project's scope.

You can check any Georgia contractor's license status for free through the Georgia Secretary of State's GOALS online portal at verify.sos.ga.gov. Search by the contractor's name or license number to confirm the license is current. This verification step takes minutes and protects you by ensuring the contractor is properly licensed to do the work.

Residential Basic and Residential Light Commercial Contractors must complete continuing education for license renewal, which the state tracks through CE Broker. If your contractor's license is set to expire, ask whether they are current on renewals. Georgia licenses expire June 30 each year; a late renewal window runs July 1 to August 15. If you have concerns about a contractor's conduct, you may file a complaint with the Licensing Division.
