Licensed Contractors
Some homeowners may not know the difference between a state-licensed contractor and a contractor holding only a local business license. This is like comparing night to day. Just about anyone with a business checking account and $100 can get a local business license and call themselves a contractor. But this is not the case for the Georgia State General Contractor License.
NOTE: Any remodeling work that costs over $2,500 requires a state license to contract and perform.
