RenoBinderMichigan Contractor License Lookup
Checked 2026-11-13.
Michigan's Bureau of Construction Codes says residential builder licensing covers people who build a residential structure, or who repair, alter, or improve one, for compensation other than wages for personal labor. The same page covers maintenance and alteration contractors. We verified the bureau page and the public licensee lookup.
Search the name or the license number and read the status. A local permit is still the building department's process.
Verify this with the board or the city before you hire. Rules change, and a city or county can require its own license on top of a state record. This is general information, not legal advice.
Common questions
- Where do I look up a Michigan residential builder?
- Use the Bureau of Construction Codes licensee lookup linked from the residential builders page.
- Does Michigan license remodel work or only new houses?
- The bureau page says the license covers repair, alteration, addition, and improvement of a residential structure for compensation, not only new construction. Read the current page.
