Checking a contractor in Georgia

Georgia licenses residential and general contractors through the Secretary of State. Plumbers, electricians and HVAC contractors are licensed by the Construction Industry Licensing Board. Roofers, painters, drywall contractors and handymen are not licensed by the state, according to the Georgia Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division.

Most cities and counties, including Gwinnett County and the City of Lawrenceville, have their own business license and permit rules. Ask for a local business license, insurance and a written contract.
