Alabama Carpentry & Framing Exam Prep Courses & Reference Materials

Alabama Carpentry & Framing contractors may perform work involving framing, finish carpentry, millwork, and other carpentry.

This is a commercial license - residential construction is regulated by the Alabama Home Builders Licensing Board (HBLB).

The Alabama Licensing Board for General Contractors offers reciprocity with Arkansas, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Tennessee commercial contractor licenses. The permit also must be for the same classification that you are seeking in Alabama. Any applicant holding a license in good standing in an accepted state can have trade portion of the exam waived upon written certification from that state in which the applicant is licensed. The Alabama General Contractors Business and Law Exam is still required for all applicants 

If you hold a residential construction license in the States of Tennessee, South Carolina, Mississippi, or Louisiana, you may be exempt from the Alabama Home Builders Licensure Board Exam. If you hold a current and valid residential builder’s license in another state, answer yes to the question on the application asking whether you have applied for a residential home builder’s license or similar license to this Board or any other governmental agency, and provide a copy of your out-of-state license with your application.
