FAQ
Generally speaking, a general contractor is someone who manages a team of subcontractors to help do various types of construction projects in your home. A custom home builder, however, is specialized in building custom homes and is able to complete this specific type of project start to finish on their own.
It is a common misconception that since the builder exam is open book, it is not difficult to pass. 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.
Start by only answering the easy questions. Read the entire exam and only answer the questions you absolutely know the answer to. If you don't know it, wait. Don't second guess yourself. There is no penalty for guessing. Don't compete with other applicants.
North Carolina requires that anyone who contracts with another person or entity to construct or make improvements to any building, highway, or public utilities, including grading, or who undertakes to superintend or manage such activities, be licensed as a general contractor if the work costs $30,000 or more.
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.
The North Carolina Licensing Board does not have full reciprocity with any other state. We currently have examination waiver agreements with South Carolina, Tennessee, Louisiana, Georgia, and Mississippi (see details regarding exam waivers).
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.
You need a general contractor license in North Carolina if you want to bid, construct, superintend or manage the construction of buildings, highways, public utilities and other types of projects over $30,000. To get licensed, you must apply to the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors (NCLBGC).
Becoming a contractor may be a smart move if you have the required experience or education, or simply have a passion for construction work.However, becoming a contractor takes several years of experience first, as well as licensing requirements that can be difficult to meet without the proper preparation.
