The licensing picture in Orlando
Of the 8,087 active licenses based in this metro, 3,989 (49%) belong to contractors who have held their license for a decade or longer — a useful signal, though not a guarantee. The largest trade here is general contractors with 2,352 active licenses.
Remember that a license proves accountability, not quality: it means the contractor is registered with the state, carries required insurance, and can be disciplined by the licensing board. It does not mean the state vouches for their work. Always collect references and written quotes.
Hiring a contractor in Orlando — FAQ
How do I check if a contractor in Orlando is licensed?
Ask for their state license number and search it on the official Florida DBPR portal at myfloridalicense.com. Every one of the 8,087 companies listed on this page shows its license number, and all were current and active in state records as of 2026-08-11.
Which trades legally require a license in Orlando?
Roofing, plumbing, air conditioning, electrical and mold remediation all require a Florida state license — this is not optional, and unlicensed contracting is a crime in Florida. General handyman work on small non-structural jobs may not, but anything involving your roof, pipes, HVAC system or mold does.
Do you rank or recommend contractors in Orlando?
No. This is an impartial directory generated from public license records — companies cannot pay to be listed, removed, or ranked higher. Appearing here means only that the license was current and active when the data was refreshed.
What should I do before hiring anyone in Orlando?
Verify the license is still active, request current proof of liability insurance and workers' compensation, get at least three written quotes, confirm who is pulling the building permit, and never pay a large deposit in cash up front.
