What Are The Contractor Licensing Requirements in Alaska?

Alaska state law requires all general contractors to be licensed. Anyone who performs mostly commercial work and residential remodel work of less than 25% of the value of the structure must have a General Contractor License without a Residential Contractor Endorsement. However, anyone who performs new home construction, commercial work, and residential remodel work of more than 25% of the value of the home or structure being altered is required to have a General Contractor License with Residential Contractor Endorsement.

Contractor continuing education is required in Alaska. 16 Hours is required for renewal of a residential contractor endorsement. An applicant for renewal of a residential contractor endorsement for the first time shall document 8 hours of acceptable continued education. Licenses expire December 31 of even number years. Renewal of Endorsement will coincide with renewal of the General Contractor registration.
