Do I have to hire a contractor to perform the work after receiving a Building Permit?

No, you do not have to hire a contractor. Many homeowners do their own minor residential upgrades. However, if you do, please make sure your contractor has a City of Coalinga business license in addition to a State Contractor’s license. A final inspection cannot be scheduled until your contractor and all the sub-contractors used for your project have obtained a business license from the City. All commercial projects and HVAC work requires the use of a licensed contractor.
