LicenseClear

LicenseClear is a contractor license lookup tool: its one purpose is to help you verify a contractor before hiring. It looks up contractors in official Florida (DBPR) and California (CSLB) public licensing records. Give it a license number or business name to see license status, expiry date, trade, workers' comp and bond where the state publishes them, and Florida discipline cases. Or ask it to list active licensed contractors for a trade in a Florida or California county, filtered to licenses with no Florida discipline on record or California workers' comp on file. Intended for homeowners and anyone vetting a contractor before hiring. Limitations: only Florida and California are covered; California discipline is not in the state's downloadable data, so a link to the official CSLB record is given instead; results are public records as of the stated data date, not a recommendation or quality ranking, and should be verified with the state licensing board before hiring.
