CSLB's public data lists 261 general contractors with a mailing address in Richmond, and 246 of them (94.3%) show a Clear primary status.

45.2% report a workers' comp exemption, 12.5 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, 5.7%, is 1.2 points higher than the Contra Costa County rate for the same license (4.5%).

Experience varies: 47.1% have been licensed 10+ years and 19 are new this year (median 9.5 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 Richmond

  1. Open the general contractor's profile from the table below (or search Richmond listings by name). Check that B appears among its classifications and that the primary status reads Clear. What B covers.
  2. Confirm it live with CSLB's Instant License Check. Statuses change between our weekly refreshes, especially workers' comp and bond suspensions.
  3. 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).
