Mississippi homeowner FAQ
How do I check a contractor's license in Mississippi?
Search the contractor on the Mississippi State Board of Contractors website. Check that the license is active and is a residential builder or remodeler license if the work is on your home.
Does a remodeler need a state license in Mississippi?
Yes, once residential remodeling or repair work is over $10,000. Below that amount there is no state license, so ask about local city or county requirements and get proof of insurance.
How should Gulf Coast homeowners prepare for hurricane season?
Have a roofer inspect shingles, flashing and roof-to-wall connections in spring, before the season starts June 1. After a storm, be cautious of out-of-state crews and check their Mississippi license before signing.
When should I service my AC in Mississippi?
Book an AC tune-up in early spring, before the long humid cooling season. Clean coils and a clear condensate drain help control indoor humidity and mold.
How do I protect my home from termites?
Schedule a yearly termite inspection and fix leaks or standing water around the foundation. Mississippi's warm, damp climate is ideal for Formosan and subterranean termites.
