California Contractor Licensing Requirements

In California, contractors must hold an active license from the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). A license is required for any project valued at $500 or more in combined labor and materials. All licensees must carry a $25,000 contractor license bond. Workers' compensation insurance is required for employers. BuildRated verifies license status, bond, and disciplinary actions directly against CSLB records.
