Free contractor license check

Verify any California contractor before you sign. CSLB records, plain language, in English and 中文.

Why these four checks?

Every California contractor must clear four things to work legally. We pull them straight from the CSLB public registry and explain what each one means before you sign anything.

  • 1.License status & expiry — only Active means they're allowed on the job.
  • 2.Surety bond — a $25,000 promise that protects you if work isn't completed.
  • 3.Workers' comp — protects you if anyone gets hurt on your property.
  • 4.Disciplinary history — past citations, complaints, and unresolved actions.
