How do I verify a plumber's license in Ohio?
Licensing in Ohio runs through the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board (OCILB) for electrical, HVAC, plumbing, hydronics and refrigeration contractors; Ohio issues no statewide general-contractor license. Before hiring anyone in Dayton, verify trade licenses in Ohio's eLicense lookup, and for general contractors and remodelers check your city or county's contractor registration, since Ohio licenses them locally. Also confirm current liability insurance, and get the license number in writing on the estimate.
