Contractor Trade License Tracking
Track your own crew's trade licenses — not subcontractor verification, your employees' own credentials.
This is about tracking your own employees' trade licenses — electricians, plumbers, HVAC techs, and similar — not verifying subcontractors' compliance. If your business employs licensed tradespeople directly, ComplyNestly keeps every license current and visible.
The problem
Trade licensing is state-specific and often tiered by experience level, and a company employing several trades at once (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) ends up tracking multiple license types with different renewal cycles across the same crew.
Who this is for
- Contracting companies that employ licensed tradespeople directly
- Businesses spanning multiple trades with different licensing requirements each
- Office managers currently tracking license renewals in a spreadsheet

Frequently asked questions
Is this for tracking my own employees or verifying subcontractors?
This is for your own employees' trade licenses. ComplyNestly is an internal workforce compliance tool, not a subcontractor-verification or vendor-compliance platform.
Can I track multiple trades (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) in one place?
Yes, each trade license is its own credential type, so a multi-trade company can track everything in one system.
Can I require a specific license level for a specific job type?
Yes, through role-based requirements — assign requirements by role, and ComplyNestly flags anyone who doesn't meet them.
