The requirements for a handyman license vary from state to state. Some states, such as Texas and Arizona require specific credentials that lead to a handyman contractor's license which covers different aspects of handyman work including remodeling and landscaping for commercial and residential properties. Other states, such as Florida, require only a business license for professional handymen. Obtain a handyman license by determining what your state requires and demonstrating the necessary experience and business intent.
