Michigan Contractor Authority is an online reference for contractor licensing, compliance, and construction-related requirements in Michigan. Part of the Michigan State Authority Network, it brings together guidance for homeowners, contractors, and others navigating the state’s regulated trades and services sector.

The site covers licensing and qualifications for residential builders, general and commercial contractors, electricians, plumbers, HVAC specialists, roofers, and other specialty trades. Its reference topics address building codes, permits, contracts, insurance and bonding, workers’ compensation, workplace safety, prevailing wages, lien rights, and contractor discipline. Visitors can also find information on hiring a contractor, resolving disputes, license renewal, continuing education, exam preparation, and the risks of using unlicensed providers.

Additional resources include code and licensing references, contractor listings, and practical tools such as license and fee calculators, a continuing education tracker, and checklists for subcontractor compliance and license verification. The authority also publishes sourced articles and official feed updates, with stated editorial, sourcing, correction, and reader-contribution policies.
