In Louisiana, any construction project of $50,000 or more ($1 or more for hazardous) must be performed by a licensed contractor, even the home owners themselves. The Louisiana Residential Contractor license is required to build a fixed building or structure three stories or less where the cost is $75,000 or more and it is used by another as a residence, including duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes. There are no provisions in the law to prevent an owner from applying for and being issued a contractor’s license. This course covers all topics on the residential building contractor licensing exam.

There are two steps in getting licensed as residential or commercial building contractor in the State of Louisiana:

1. Submit an application to the State Licensing Board for Contractors along with the supporting documents. You can obtain an application at the State web site:  http://www.lslbc.louisiana.gov
