About each permit
Home Improvement Contractor License
County Code §863.313(1) provides that no person may conduct the home improvement business in the county unless licensed under Article XVI. §863.315 sets the non-refundable fee at $750 for the two-year license and $750 for each renewal. The county's home improvement application packet dated January 2026 reproduces Article XVI and states that the $750 fee applies as of January 1, 2026. The packet also sets a $50 duplicate-license fee and a $50 late renewal penalty. Scope: §863.321(3) limits Article XVI to the area of the county outside any city, village or area of a town that is itself regulating or licensing the home improvement business. The packet states that the CITY OF YONKERS has additional licensing requirements, and it sets out no further detail on Yonkers.
