Mississippi

Mississippi general contractor license

Mississippi has two different types of licenses: Residential Builder and Building Construction. Both licenses can do full residential work, but only the Building Construction license will allow for commercial work.

 

All contractors performing work on any commercial job over $50,000, new residential construction over $50,000, and residential remodeling or additions over $10,000, are required to have a license.


Mississippi Commercial Building (NASCLA)

The Mississippi Building Construction license allows the builder to bid on, build, or modify any type or size of commercial or residential property. This course is for the NASCLA exam, not the state test. The benefits of choosing NASCLA over the state test are listed below.

There are two required exams: the NASCLA commercial trades exam and the Mississippi Business Law exam. Once you pass the NASCLA exam, your passing score can also be used in other states to get commercial GC licenses. For a current list of states that accept NASCLA: Click Here
