The California Earthwork and Paving contractor license allows you to dig, move, and place materials forming the surface of the earth, other than water, in such a manner that a cut, fill, excavation, grade, trench, backfill, or tunnel (if incidental thereto) can be executed, including the use of explosives for these purposes. This classification includes the mixing, fabricating and placing of paving and any other surfacing materials.
The CSLB will either issue your license or contact you if they need further information.
