City + trade requirements

Build the verification chain for hvac replacement in Denver.

Denver licenses or registers building and trade contractors by classification. A Colorado state license alone does not replace a required Denver credential.

Verify the Denver classification for the proposed scope and match the licensed company and supervisor or certificate holder to the permit.

No automatic verification occurs on this page. Open the official records, save the result and record only what you can match. “Not applicable” requires an official source explaining why.

Project-specific interview

Ask every bidder the same verification questions.

  1. Does the license classification cover the complete hvac replacement scope?
  2. Does the legal entity on the proposal exactly match the official license record?
  3. Is the responsible qualifier or certificate holder still connected to that entity?
  4. Who is the licensed mechanical/HVAC contractor and are gas or electrical sub-trades identified?
  5. Will the same entity appear on the application, permit, contract, invoices and final record?
