If you pay someone to construct a building or a structure, make structural alterations to load bearing walls, or perform services such as plumbing or air conditioning work, that person must have a state contractor's license.
The Florida Construction Industry License Board maintains high standards for contractor licensing. Prior to receiving their license, Florida contractors are required to prove four years of relevant work experience or education; pass a board examination and prove financial solvency.
In Florida, licensed contractors with employees are required to carry workers' compensation insurance and attest they have obtained public liability and property damage insurance in the amounts determined by the Board.
Florida maintains a recovery fund, called the Florida Homeowners' Construction Recovery Fund, which is available to a natural person who has suffered monetary damages by the financial mismanagement or misconduct of a contractor, and who has exhausted all other sources of payment. The Board makes the determination of eligibility for an award. Florida contractors are not required to carry an active bond.
As of 2007, the Florida DBPR began requiring license applicants to submit their fingerprints, which are used to run a criminal background check with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement. In addition, they are required to provide a credit report during the license application process to demonstrate financial stability.
The BuildZoom score is based on a number of factors including the contractor's license status, insurance status, verified work history, standing with local consumer interest groups, verified reviews from other BuildZoom users and self-reported feedback from the contractor.
When it comes to major construction work or even minor alterations to your home, hiring the wrong contractor could result in incomplete or defective work. You may even find yourself dealing with huge liability claims. BuildZoom does the homework for you and helps you hire the right contractor.
The Florida Construction Industry License Board recommends getting at least three written bids before hiring a contractor. Do not automatically accept the lowest bid - an abnormally low bid may indicate the contractor made a mistake and is not including the same work quoted by their competitors. We've made the bid collection process extremely simple (and free). Just click here to get started.

Absolutely terrible experience. Our HOA hired A&M to paint the exterior of our four building/12 unit townhouse community. We gave a 50% deposit to start the work and an additional 25% when the main surface area of two of the four buildings were completed. This did not count electrostatic painting having been done yet on balcony railings on any of the buildings. Shortly after getting that last payment, work came to a standstill and the project has been in complete limbo for the past six or so weeks. Basically, we have one untouched building, one building that is partially painted, and a whole bunch of railings on all four buildings that require electrostatic painting. The owners of the company have not paid their employees, who keep knocking on residents doors to ask if anybody has had contact with said owners because they are due back wages. A portable toilet, a lift, and a storage container were placed at our property by A&M. We have since found out that all three of these items were rented by A&M and all three of the companies that rented these items to A&M have not been paid. Basically we are at a point where they have 75% of our money and approximately 50% of the job has been completed and instead of having this project completed as it should have been weeks ago, we are now about to begin legal proceedings. And one other thing, if this review did not make you run the other way, make sure you check the Florida department of corrections database with the owners names. You will find that one of them is a convicted felon. We wish we saw that before hiring them.
