> Check 130,436 California contractor licenses by name or number: status, classifications, bond, and whether the contractor carries workers' compensation.

## Check a California contractor — license, bond, employees

Type a contractor name or a license number. 130,436 company licenses in the CSLB file of October 1, 2026.

About to sign? A [dated license, bond and workers' comp report ($19)](/report.md) for your file — or [your subcontractor list checked](/pro.md).

### What this is

The CSLB's own “Check a License” tool verifies one license at a time, if you already know its number or exact name. This site answers the questions it does not: who is licensed for this trade in my city, and does this contractor have employees? Each record puts the three things to check before hiring on one page — the license status, the contractor's bond, and workers' compensation.

### Who uses it

- **Homeowners** — find licensed contractors by city and trade, and see who is insured for their crew.
- **General contractors and property managers** — check a list of subcontractors in one pass.
- **Suppliers and insurers** — the licensed companies of one classification in one city.

### What it is not

Not the CSLB, and not a license. This is the CSLB file of October 1, 2026: for today's status and for complaint disclosure, use the CSLB's Instant License Check. Contractors licensed as sole owners are not on this site — look them up on the CSLB tool.
