How to check a general contractor's license in Exeter

  1. Look the company up by name or license number (search Exeter). On the profile, confirm three things: Clear status, the B license for this kind of work, and a contractor's bond on file.
  2. 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.
  3. Match the license holder's name to the name on the written contract and the person you meet. Since 64.9% of Exeter general contractors claim a workers' comp exemption, ask who will actually do the work. Hiring checklist.
