New York does not require a statewide hvac contractor license — verification leans on entity registration, court records, OSHA citation history, and BBB complaints. Plus any local municipal licensing in your city. Groundcheck cross-checks all of these.
New York does not license HVAC contractors at the state level. NYC, Buffalo, and other municipalities issue local HVAC licenses — check the local building department.
