FAQ

Florida Contractor License Requirements Be at least 18 years old. Submit proof of a credit score of a 660 or higher.Scan an electronic fingerprint. Provide proof of liability and workers' compensation insurance. Pass the Florida State Construction Examination. Fill out your contractor license application.

In Florida, contractor licensing is done both at the state and local level. If you want to perform work anywhere within the state of Florida, you will need a Certified License, and if you want to perform work in a specific city/county, you will need a Registered License.

Unlicensed contractors can be liable for punitive damages, criminal penalties, and even the homeowner's attorney fees for being an unlicensed contractor. In Florida, you can file a lawsuit against your unlicensed contractor for breach of contract or even construction defect.

If your work will become a finished part of the structure (such as replacing flooring in an entire room) and the total for the project exceeds $500, you must have a general contractor license in Florida.

Never pay the full amount of a repair up front and hesitate before providing large deposits. Florida law requires a contractor to apply for a permit within 30 days and start work within 90 days if he collects more than 10 percent of the contract up front.

F.S. §489.127(4) adds that licensed contractors may not allow their license to be used by another,46 nor apply for a permit for a project for which he or she does not have a contract, the latter covering those not infrequent situations in which contractors ?rent out? their licenses.

If you only want to work in a localized area, you can get by with a registered license. These licenses are provided by the Florida Construction Industry Licensing Board, and they apply to both general contractors and sub trades.

Those penalties are covered in Florida Statute 489.127. Acting as a contractor without a license is a first-degree misdemeanor, punishable by a term of imprisonment up to one year, or 12 months of probation and a fine of up to $1,000.

If you wish to file a complaint against a contractor, you may contact the Department of Business & Professional Regulation online at or by phone at (850) 487-1395.
