In South Carolina (SC), the pursuit of a successful career as a general contractor necessitates obtaining the appropriate state license for various types of construction work.

Moreover, both residential general works surpassing $5,000 and residential specialty work exceeding $200 require state licensure. As part of the licensure process, candidates are required to successfully pass two examinations: the business and law exam, as well as the trade-specific exam. If you wish to perform only residential work, you must contact the Residential Builders Commission at (803) 896-4696. For more information, please visit South Carolina Labor Licensing Regulation. Navigating the South Carolina contractor licensing process can be complex, but our team is here to provide the guidance and resources you need.
