Alabama / Licensing Board for General Contractors
Alabama Licensing Board for General Contractors
This page publishes the board's FullRosterReport, retrieved 2026-10-05. The file prints no as-of date. It is one statewide board. It is not a roster of every Alabama contractor.
Home builders, electrical contractors, HVAC contractors, and plumbers and gas fitters have their own boards. Those rosters were not acquired. Their absence is not a zero.
Source rows, one license number each
Rows whose specialty text contains SUBCONTRACTOR
Other rows. The source does not label these as prime contractors.
Specialty text
Specialty stays as printed. Combined classifications and reciprocity clauses remain one specialty string. There are 3,360 distinct specialty strings. Electrical, HVAC, and plumbing words in this field are ALBGC classifications, not the Electrical Contractors Board, the HVAC Board, or the Plumbers and Gas Fitters Board.
| What the source supports | Rows | How it is identified |
|---|---|---|
| Source-labelled subcontractor | 3,312 | Specialty text contains SUBCONTRACTOR. Every one of these license numbers starts with S-, and every S- license has that specialty text. |
| Specialty text exactly INACTIVE | 76 | Specialty text is INACTIVE. Every one of these license numbers starts with IA-. This is specialty text, not a status column. |
| Other specialty text | 5,460 | Numeric license numbers. The source does not assign these rows a prime, business, or person class. |
Three company names contain the word SUBCONTRACTORS and are not in the 3,312 count, because their specialty text does not: 11104 ALL-SOUTH SUBCONTRACTORS INC; 27994 THOMAS & ASSOCIATES SUBCONTRACTORS, INC; 45133 MID-SOUTH SUBCONTRACTORS INC.
