In Missouri, contractor licensing is tracked by the Missouri Division of Professional Registration. You can look up any contractor's license status directly at https://pr.mo.gov/licensee-search.asp. To file a complaint or check for consumer alerts, use the Missouri Attorney General's consumer complaint page at https://app.ago.mo.gov/app/consumercomplaint. AboveBoardPros runs this same check before listing a contractor, then reviews it on an ongoing basis.
