Contractor License Requirements

Special Bulletin

The purpose of this Special Bulletin is to provide clarity as to the requirements for a contractors license when preparing for movement, installing, and repairing or altering a manufactured home.

• A C47 Contractor License is required for preparing for movement and/or installing a manufactured home: see CSLB #24-03 attached.
• For repairs requiring a permit from the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) a “C” Specialty or “B” General Building Contractor license is required depending on the work to be performed.

NOTE: There is an exemption for legitimate owner-builder.

Also attached is HCD Information Bulletin 2022-11 which details permit requirements for repairs, alterations or conversions of manufactured homes.

The attached copy of HCD form 415 requires a licensed contractors declaration.
