I HAVE BEEN IN THE SHOWER DOOR BUSINESS FOR OVER 15 YEARS, HAD A BUSINESS IN PA. JUST RECENTLY OPENED UP IN FLORIDA, I NEED TO KNOW DO I NEED TO GET A CONTRACTORS LICENSE FOR THIS KIND OF WORK. I DO NOT DO ANY GLASS CURTAIN WALLS OR STAIRS, IT JUST SHOWER DOORS AND CLOSETS(SHELVING)
Like all states, Florida has license requirements for contractors . The Construction Industry Licensing Board (CILB) runs the show when it comes to Florida contractor's license. The CILB is responsible for licensing and regulating the construction industry in Florida.
The State of Florida provides 2 classifications of Florida contractor's licenses which include: certified and registered
Once you pass the Florida State Certification exam to become a certified contractor, you can submit a full application as long as the requirements are met. The CILB requires that you provide the following information: Proof of 4 years experience, a credit report, fingerprints for background checks, and proof of insurance.
I hope that helps!
