CSLB's public data lists 328 limited specialty contractors with a mailing address in Bakersfield, and 309 of them (94.2%) show a Clear primary status.
28.7% report a workers' comp exemption, 7.5 points lower than the statewide figure for limited specialty contractors (36.2%), so many of these businesses say they have no employees. The share with a suspension (5.8%) is close to the Kern County rate for the same license (5.8%).
Experience varies: 60.1% have been licensed 10+ years and 19 are new this year (median 12.7 years, vs 13 statewide).
C-61 licenses are always paired with a D-subcategory that names the specific trade, so check the "D" code on each profile. See the C-61 Limited Specialty guide for what the license covers.
How to check a limited specialty contractor's license in Bakersfield
- Look the company up by name or license number (search Bakersfield). On the profile, confirm three things: Clear status, the C-61 license for this kind of work, and a contractor's bond on file.
- Confirm it live with CSLB's Instant License Check. Statuses change between our weekly refreshes, especially workers' comp and bond suspensions.
- Ask for the pocket license and a photo ID and match the name to your contract. Work of $1,000 or more needs a license (the $1,000 rule), and a down payment can't exceed $1,000 or 10% (down payment rules).
