Tennessee ties licensing to job size and county.
The thresholds
- Under $3,000: no state remodeling license (local rules still apply)
- $3,000 to under $25,000: Home Improvement license in adopting counties, including Davidson and Rutherford
- $25,000+: state contractor's license
Verify
Look up the license on the Tennessee Department of Commerce & Insurance site, and make sure the name matches your contract.
