What Are The Credential Requirements for VA Contractors?

Working with licensed contractors is crucial for the success of any construction or remodeling project. In Virginia, contractors are required to adhere to strict credential requirements set forth by the Code of Virginia. These requirements classify contractors into different classes, Class A, Class B, and Class C,  based on the total value of the construction projects they undertake. 

Moreover, for certain specialties such as electrical, plumbing, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning contractors must obtain a master tradesman license as mandated by the Board for Contractors. These rigorous credential requirements ensure that contractors in Virginia possess the necessary qualifications and expertise to successfully execute construction and renovation projects while upholding industry standards and legal regulations.
