CSLB's public data lists 26 limited specialty contractors with a mailing address in Downey, and 25 of them (96.2%) show a Clear primary status.
30.8% report a workers' comp exemption, 5.4 points lower than the statewide figure for limited specialty contractors (36.2%), so many of these businesses say they have no employees. The share with a suspension, 3.8%, is 1.3 points lower than the Los Angeles County rate for the same license (5.1%).
Experience varies: 69.2% have been licensed 10+ years and 0 are new this year (median 17.5 years, vs 13 statewide).
C-61 licenses are always paired with a D-subcategory that names the specific trade, so check the "D" code on each profile. See the C-61 Limited Specialty guide for what the license covers.
How to check a limited specialty contractor's license in Downey
- Look the company up by name or license number (search Downey). On the profile, confirm three things: Clear status, the C-61 license for this kind of work, and a contractor's bond on file.
- Before any money changes hands, verify the license on CSLB's own lookup. Our data comes from CSLB's weekly file, so a very recent change may not show here yet.
- Ask for the pocket license and a photo ID and match the name to your contract. Work of $1,000 or more needs a license (the $1,000 rule), and a down payment can't exceed $1,000 or 10% (down payment rules).
