Home Improvement Contractor - Licensed Contractors
Do you need a General contractor's License To Build a home for Yourself?
My brother has been building homes all of his life for someone else but never came across the opportunity to become a certified General Contractor. I want to see him build houses for himself instead of making someone else rich. He has two crews and all the tools and were in Gulf Shores Alabama does anyone have any suggestions?

- not necessarily, but you would have to be insured and get a building certificate to build, regardless of where it is. check the laws in the state where he is building.
- Each state has different requirements to be general contractor. Call the state of Alabama to find out what they require, you might also check with LA since there is so much building going on there also. Be sure to carry liability insurance and workers' comp.
