Licensing and rules
Tennessee licenses contractors through the Board for Licensing Contractors in the Department of Commerce and Insurance. A contractor's license is generally required for projects of $25,000 or more. Plumbing, electrical and HVAC work between $3,000 and $25,000 needs a limited license, and residential home-improvement work in some counties needs a separate home-improvement license.
Many cities and counties also license electricians, plumbers and gas installers locally. Verify any Tennessee contractor with the state's license search before you hire.
Hiring here: common questions
How do I check that a contractor here is licensed?
Most states license trades like roofing, HVAC, plumbing and electrical. If a pro gave us a license number, it is on their page. Look it up on your state's website before you hire. Pros with the Checked badge had their license and insurance checked by a person.
How do I get quotes from local pros?
Describe the job and we send you a shortlist of verified businesses that serve this area. You choose who gets your details. We never sell them.
Start a project →Do businesses pay to be listed or ranked?
Listing is free. Placement can be paid, and it is always labeled: the Area Sponsor for that trade and city first, then up to two Sponsored results from Pro plans, then Checked pros, then free listings. Money never buys the Checked badge, an award, a vote or a review.
Who are the best-rated home-service pros here?
Homeowners decide in the Top of the Trades awards. Nominations open January 1, voting runs August 15 to October 15 with one vote per home, and winners are announced November 1.
