Free API and Lookup Tool for Canadian Contractor Licenses

By Meridian48 News Desk · Summarised from DEV Community ·

A new tool, CheckContractors.ca, lets users verify Canadian contractor licenses across Quebec and Ontario registries in one search. The API version provides bulk access to license data, including status, categories, and bonding info. This addresses the problem of homeowners losing money to unlicensed contractors due to fragmented provincial systems.

Meridian48 take
The tool is useful but limited to two provinces; coverage gaps remain for other regions.
