Plumbing COntractor FAQ
Where can I verify a contractor's license?
To check if a contractor is licensed in Pensacola, visit MyFloridaLicense.com, the official Florida DBPR site.
- Click “Verify a License” (or go to the License Search page).
- Search by the contractor’s name, license number, or location.
- Review results: Confirm the license is active, the type (plumbing/general contracting) is correct, and the expiration date is current.
- Check for complaints or disciplinary actions.
Tip: If no license appears, the contractor may be unlicensed. Report unlicensed activity to the ULA hotline at 866-532-1440 or email ULA@myfloridalicense.com.
Where do I verify a contractor's business licence?
If your contractor is a corporation or LLC, you’ll also want to check them out on Sunbiz.org, Florida’s official business registry.
Here’s how:
- Go to Sunbiz – Search Records.
- Search by the business name or the officer/registered agent’s name.
- Confirm a few key details:
- The business status is marked ACTIVE.
- The registered agent and entity details are accurate and up to date.
Sunbiz updates daily, so the information is fresh.
If you search “S.E. Tradesmen,” you’ll see our company listed as S.E. TRADESMEN LLC, along with all the official registration details.
Why hire a licensed contractor?
In Florida, most construction and repair work must be done by a licensed contractor under Florida Statute 489.103. Homeowners who try to act as their own contractor can only do so in very limited cases, and they must supervise all work themselves.
Licensed contractors also carry liability insurance. This protects you if an accident happens or if your property is damaged. Many insurance companies will not cover claims if the work was done by an unlicensed person.
You also get financial protection through the Homeowners’ Construction Recovery Fund, managed by the DBPR/UI Licensing Board. If a licensed contractor fails financially or breaks the law, homeowners may be able to file a claim. This protection does not exist with unlicensed contractors.
Licensed contractors handle permits and inspections and understand the local building codes. This helps prevent delays, code violations, and costly mistakes, especially for projects that affect safety.
Most licensed contractors offer warranties for their work. They are also accountable to state boards, so you can file a complaint if they do not meet professional standards.
Bottom line: Hiring a licensed contractor protects you legally and financially and ensures your project is done safely and correctly.
Can a handyman do plumbing work?
Florida does not issue a specific “handyman license.” But that doesn’t mean handymen can take on any project they choose. The state’s contractor licensing laws still apply, and there are clear limits on what work can be performed without holding a contractor’s license.
Task Type | Allowed for Handyman? |
Drain unclogging, faucet filters | ✔ Yes (if <$2,500 total) |
Fixture installation (simple, “plug-in”) | ✔ Yes |
Appliance hookups (dishwasher, water heater) | ❌ No |
In-wall/pipe/hard-wired plumbing | ❌ No |
Any work requiring a permit or exceeding $2,500 | ❌ No |
Red Flags Your Contractor may not be licensed?
No license number in their ad.
Licensed contractors must list their license number in every advertisement. If you don’t see a license number you can verify, move on to someone else.
Only a name and cell phone number.
Be cautious of anyone advertising with nothing more than a name and a phone number. You should not invite someone into your home who cannot show who they are or who they work for.
They claim to be “licensed and insured” but only show an occupational license.
An occupational license is not a contractor’s license. It only shows that the person paid a local tax. It does not mean they are allowed to perform regulated work. A real contractor will gladly show their Florida DBPR license and proof of insurance. Always verify the license is active and belongs to the person or company you plan to hire.
They ask for all or most of the money upfront or want cash only.
This is a major red flag. Never pay cash for home repairs or improvements.
They want checks made out to an individual or to “cash.”
This is unsafe, especially if you believe you are hiring a company.
They show up in unmarked vehicles or have out-of-state tags.
These “trunk slammers” often take your money and disappear. Avoid anyone who cannot prove who they are or where they work.
They refuse to put the agreement in writing.
Licensed contractors always provide written contracts. A contract should list the work to be done, the price, and the expected completion date.
They say no permit is needed or ask you to pull the permit.
Most home improvements require permits. Licensed contractors handle permits and inspections. Anyone avoiding this process is likely unlicensed.
