Norfolk painting licensure at a glance
45 current DPOR painting contractor licenses are registered in Norfolk. The letters on Virginia licences are the state's project-size tiers - 16 Class A, 8 Class B and 21 Class C here - shown as published and never ranked on: the dollar thresholds behind them are statute, not data in the extract, so we do not print them. Tenure is what these pages rank on, and Virginia's dates support it: the median Norfolk license has been held 15 years, and 1 (2.2%) has been held 25 or more years. DPOR's extract carries no insurance, no bond and no phone for any licensee, so Virginia listings show none of the three - a gap in the state's file, not a finding about any contractor. DPOR cannot link straight to a record, so every listing above shows its number for you to paste into DPOR's license lookup. How we verify.
