Confirm This Is the Right License for Your Work
Every state licensing board defines the exact project types, sizes, and trades that fall under each contractor classification. Review the scope below to make sure this license matches the work you actually do — then enroll in the seminar that prepares you for that exam the first time.
This is not a license by itself. It is however required by all types of contractors. The State has created a trade exam for most licenses. When a trade exam is available, applicants must take both the trade exam and the Management Survey Exam. When there is no trade exam, the Management Survey exam is the only exam required in order to obtain that license. Each individual license’s information page will explain which tests are required.
License Requirements
Applicants must submit an application to the state licensing board to obtain approval before being eligible to take the exam(s). Part of the application process includes submitting to a background check.
A surety Bond is required. The minimum bond amount is $1000 and the maximum is $500,000.
Applicants must have at least 4 years experience within the last 10 years in the designation applying for.
