Pinellas County Construction Licensing Board

County-Certified Contractor License (Pinellas County Construction Licensing Board)

The Pinellas County Construction Licensing Board (PCCLB) regulates certain construction and home improvement contractors practicing in Pinellas County, including all local municipalities, according to its homepage. Per the PCCLB 2026-2027 Fee Schedule, a contractor application costs $250.00 and a change of status $100.00. Annual renewal costs $150.00 for an active county-certified license, $112.50 for an active county pile-driving license and $75.00 for an inactive county license. Renewal after September 30, 2026 adds a $100.00 late fee; from November 1, 2026 a $125.00 reinstatement fee also applies, so the schedule's own table totals an active county renewal at $250.00 before October 31, 2026 and $375.00 after it, up to March 31, 2027. A Countywide Board of Adjustments and Appeals filing and a product approval each cost $100.00. The schedule states that fees paid to PCCLB do not include examination fees, training and course materials, or fees payable to a credit reporting agency. State-certified contractors hold a DBPR license, which the PCCLB homepage directs the public to check at myfloridalicense.com.
