Florida General Contractors (GC)
Hi,
I'm looking at the Florida license web site. Anyone used this?
I looked up a few names to verify if any complaints have been lodged.
Based on the title, does Certified Residential Contractor in any way mean "General Contractor".
How can I tell if the person is a GC versus a regular contractor.
There doesn't seem to be a way to search for 'general contractor'.
Thanks

"Registered" means they are not licensed Statewide as a GC, they must pass local (county) testing to be licensed in that specific county.
