Constructity monitors the CSLB database every single day. Add any contractor to your watchlist and get an instant alert the moment their license is suspended, bond lapses, or insurance expires. Catch it before it becomes your problem.
License suspensions, bond cancellations, and insurance lapses happen every day. No one else is automatically notified.
Under California B&P Code § 7031(b), contractors must return all compensation received for work performed while their license was suspended. Quality of work is not a defense. Courts have ordered disgorgement of millions on a single lapse.
If you knowingly (or unknowingly) use a sub with a suspended license, you expose your own contractor license to CSLB action. Ignorance of a sub's status is not a defense. It's your responsibility to verify.
In California, a workers' comp or bond lapse triggers an automatic license suspension by operation of law on that exact date. The sub may not even know. You definitely won't, unless someone is watching.
Real case: A California subcontractor was ordered to disgorge $18,331,811 (the full contract value plus interest) because their license lapsed for 13 months during the project. The work was completed. It didn't matter.
No manual checking. No spreadsheets. Just add licenses and let Constructity watch.
Search by license number or business name. Add any CSLB-licensed contractor: your own license, your subs, or anyone you work with.
We pull the full CSLB master license file daily, compare it against the previous snapshot, and flag every change, no matter how small.
The moment a license status, bond, insurance, or classification changes, you get an email. No login required to stay informed.
Whether you're protecting your own livelihood or managing compliance across a full sub roster, Constructity scales to your needs.
Your license is how you earn a living. A forgotten renewal, an insurance lapse, or an administrative suspension can sideline you. You might not find out until a job falls through.
One suspended sub on a live project can expose your payment rights, delay inspections, and put your GC license at risk. You can't check the CSLB for every sub every day. We can.
Tracking license compliance across dozens of active subcontractors on multiple projects manually isn't a process. It's a liability. Monitor your entire network automatically, at scale.
Constructity is purpose-built for California contractor license compliance, not a generic tool bolted onto something else.
We pull the full CSLB master file every day, not weekly or on-demand. Changes are caught within 24 hours.
Get notified the same day any change is detected. Choose between critical-only alerts or all updates.
Suspensions, bond cancellations, workers' comp expirations, and insurance lapses are flagged as high-priority the moment they occur.
Every change is logged with a date and description. See the complete timeline of any license's status history, useful for audits and disputes.
Group your watchlist by project, trade, division, or risk tier. Filter instantly to see who needs attention without a spreadsheet.
Built directly on the CSLB's public license database, the same source the state uses. No third-party aggregators, no stale data.
Free for up to 3 licenses. No credit card required. Takes less than two minutes to set up.
