Get Your Contractor License Approved as Fast as 2 Weeks
Tired of delays and confusing licensing requirements? At Special Trade Services we make getting your contractor's license fast, easy, and hassle-free. We assist you from start to finish with assembling the paperwork, reviewing for errors, and communicating with the government on your behalf.
THE PROBLEM
Why Contractors Struggle With Licensing (And Why It Costs Them)
You know you need a license to earn more, avoid fines, and protect yourself legally. But the licensing process is deliberately complicated:
- Conflicting information from government websites and forums
- Hidden requirements that cause instant rejections
- Months of delays while your competitors are working
- One mistake can mean starting over from scratch
The Real Cost: Every week without a license is lost income. Work without one? You risk $10,000+ fines, confiscated equipment, and worst of all - no legal claim to payment if a customer refuses to pay you.
"Best company ever! Super responsive and professional. I got my home improvement license in less than 2 weeks. Highly recommended and will definitely use their services again for any future needs."
— Ronny R., General Contractor New York, NY

What Happens If You Don't Get Licensed
The Cost Of Working Without A License
Legal Risks:
- Fines starting at $5,000 per violation
- Equipment, tools, and vehicles can be CONFISCATED
- NO legal claim to payment if customer refuses to pay
- Cannot sue for non-payment in court
- Cannot pull permits or pass inspections
Business Risks:
- Cannot advertise openly (no website, no truck signs)
- Cannot bid on commercial projects
- Cannot grow beyond small cash jobs
- Customers checking licenses online see you're illegal
- Referrals dry up when word spreads
Financial Reality:One week of legal work pays for our entire service. Working illegally means you're always operating in fear and leaving money on the table.
Get legal. Get protected. Get earning.
SPECIAL SITUATIONS
Yes, We Can Help - Even If...
"I have a criminal record"
A past conviction does NOT disqualify you. We've helped hundreds of contractors with criminal histories get approved. There are a few extra steps, and we know exactly how to handle them. Your consultation is confidential.
"I was denied before"
Application denied? We fix the mistakes that caused rejection and resubmit correctly. Most denials are due to paperwork errors we can resolve.
"I need it URGENTLY"
We offer expedited service for contractors who need to start a project immediately. Call us for rush timeline options.
"I can't afford expensive consultants"
We offer transparent pricing and payment plans. Compare our fee to one week of lost work - it pays for itself immediately. Plus, the cost of one rejection (lost time + reapplication fees) usually exceeds our entire service.
"I'm not sure which license I need"
This is why you need us. Getting the WRONG license wastes months. We identify the exact license for your trade and location in your free consultation.
