Check a license in Montana
Montana does not have a tested general contractor license. Construction contractors with employees, along with corporations and manager-managed LLCs, must register with the Montana Department of Labor and Industry, and electricians and plumbers are licensed by the state.

Montana homeowner FAQ
How do I check a contractor in Montana?
Use the Montana Department of Labor and Industry construction contractor registration search. Confirm the registration is active before work begins.
Is Montana contractor registration the same as a license?
Not exactly. Registration shows the business is on file with the state but does not test skills. For electrical and plumbing work, also confirm the person holds a state trade license.
When should I service my furnace in Montana?
Schedule service in late summer or early fall, before the first hard freeze. Ask about higher-rated filters if wildfire smoke reaches your area in summer.
Do I need to worry about snow load on my roof?
Yes, especially in mountain towns. Have a roofer check the structure and arrange safe snow removal during heavy winters rather than climbing up yourself.
How do I keep pipes from freezing?
Insulate pipes along exterior walls and in crawl spaces, and keep the heat on when you travel. A plumber can add heat tape to problem lines.
