Why ContractorRoster

The state board's job ends at the license. Ours starts there.

Site prep, grading, and trenching subs need weeks of scheduling notice, and the crews with capacity change month to month. ContractorRoster delivers every active excavating license with phone, email, and website — call ten, compare scheduling, lock the right crew.

California: California requires all contractors performing work valued over $500 to hold an active CSLB license. The CSLB registry is one of the most comprehensive in the country, with roughly 280,000 active licenses across all trades.
