A Texas electrical contractor (TECL) holds a business license that authorizes the company to bid, contract for, and perform electrical work. Every TECL must designate a qualifying master electrician whose individual ME license backs the contractor license. The TECL must carry general liability insurance and is renewed annually. Cities may require additional local registration before pulling permits. The contractor license is what homeowners verify when hiring a company; the master electrician license is the individual whose qualifications support that contractor.
Every record on this page is published from the Texas Department of Licensing & Regulation All Licenses dataset and refreshed nightly. We display the status that TDLR published at last sync and re-derive each contractor’s verdict against the current date so the badge on a profile is honest about the moment you load the page.
