CSLB's public data lists 456 general contractors with a mailing address in Hayward, and 438 of them (96.1%) show a Clear primary status.
46.1% report a workers' comp exemption, 11.6 points lower than the statewide figure for general contractors (57.7%), so many of these businesses say they have no employees. The share with a suspension (3.9%) is close to the Alameda County rate for the same license (4.2%).
Experience varies: 52% have been licensed 10+ years and 30 are new this year (median 10.5 years, vs 15.3 statewide).
General contractors hold CSLB's B (General Building Contractor) license, which covers projects that combine two or more unrelated trades. See the B General Building Contractor guide for what the license covers.
How to check a general contractor's license in Hayward
- Look the company up by name or license number (search Hayward). On the profile, confirm three things: Clear status, the B license for this kind of work, and a contractor's bond on file.
- Confirm it live with CSLB's Instant License Check. Statuses change between our weekly refreshes, especially workers' comp and bond suspensions.
- 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).
