Homeowners: When it Comes to Home Improvement … Who Do You Trust?

DORA’s Division of Registrations is your resource to trust to check the status of licenses and research disciplinary actions filed against professionals that DORA regulates such as: architects, landscape architects, engineers, plumbers, plumbing contractors, electricians, and electrical contractors.

General contractors, like handymen, painters or roofers, are not regulated at the state level, but some counties do oversee them. Check with your county or city’s local building department to find out if general contractors require licensure and if your contractor is properly licensed.
