Find a licensed general contractor in Pennsylvania
Every general contractor here holds an active state license, re-verified against the board weekly. Describe your project once. Get matched with licensed pros before you hand over a deposit. Free for homeowners.
Why verification matters
Remodels are where unlicensed contractors do the most damage - deposits taken, work abandoned, no bond to recover from. A state license means there is a real, accountable business behind the bid.

Why ContractorRoster
The state board's job ends at the license. Ours starts there.
GC licensing is jurisdiction-heavy: California separates A, B, and B-2; most states roll residential and commercial into one. Cross-checking who's actually active in a given city takes hours. ContractorRoster pulls every active GC license in the area, normalizes the classifications, and adds phone, email, and website for over 95% of records.
Pennsylvania: Pennsylvania licenses almost no construction trades at the state level. Philadelphia L&I publishes about 7,000 active contractor, electrical, plumbing, fire-suppression, and excavation licenses through its open-data portal; Pittsburgh publishes another 2,100 general, electrical, HVAC, and fire-suppression licenses. Outside those two cities, contractor licensing is municipal — residential remodelers register with the PA Attorney General's Home Improvement Contractor program, a statewide roster not yet available for bulk download.
