Home Improvement Contractor - Licensed Contractors

Which states do you need a contractors license to install ceramic tile?

I know someone getting ready to start their own company and some general contractors have offered them to work in different states but asked if they had a flooring contractors license in states like West Virginia and Arkansas. In Ohio, where they are based, there is no need for one.

  1. check with the state's contract license board and/or the attorney general's office of the states that he is planning to do work in.
  2. When you perform work in a state you have to abide by their laws. Just because you do not need a license in you home state - you ain't in Kansas Toto - it is a whole new ballgame. So you type in "Arkansas State Contractors Board" or whatever and check it out. Local business licenses may also be needed. Everyone wants their share of revenue.
