Texas requires specialty contractors to have a license and that the license be current before they can provide services. Several of these types of specialty licenses are often needed after a home has been impacted by a disaster.
Some of these include:
Electricians
Air Conditioning Specialists
Plumbers
Mold Remediation
Use TDLR to search for licensed contractors or verify that a contractor you are considering to hire is licensed and the license is current.
Choose the LICENSE TYPE (Ex. Electrician)
Then choose your CITY, COUNTY or ZIP CODE
