About each permit
Contractor License — Pennsylvania position (licensed locally)
The Department of Labor and Industry states that the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania "currently has no licensure or certification requirements for most construction contractors (or their employees)", so no state amount is shown. The same page states that some of Pennsylvania's 2,562 municipalities have established their own licensure or certification requirements for contractors, typically for home improvement, electrical and plumbing work, that the Department maintains no records of which municipalities have done so, and that the information can only be obtained from the municipality where the work will occur. The state-level exceptions the page lists are home improvement contractor registration with the Attorney General, asbestos and lead removal certification, crane operator licensure and manufactured housing installer certification.
