To get licensed, you must apply to the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors (NCLBGC). This process includes completing a license application form, passing an exam, providing documents like financial statements, and obtaining a North Carolina contractor license bond.
Although subcontractors may be required to obtain certain trade licenses if acting as electricians, plumbers, carpenters, etc., they are not required to have a general contractor's license even if their subcontract is valued at $30,000 or more if they are contracting with a licensed general contractor.

In actuality the North Carolina construction license exam is more difficult to pass than similar closed book exams due to the fact that you have books available as a resource during the contractor exam. You are permitted to bring certain reference materials into the builder test.
If an application is submitted with a completed exam, the licensing process takes about 30 days. If an exam is required, it will depend on when exams are successfully completed. It takes about 2 to 3 weeks after exams are completed before a license to be granted.
The local building inspector is required to submit the affidavit to the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors for verification that the property owner is eligible to act as his own general contractor under the exemption to G.S. 87-1.
