Confirm This Is the Right License for Your Work

Every state licensing board defines the exact project types, sizes, and trades that fall under each contractor classification. Review the scope below to make sure this license matches the work you actually do — then enroll in the seminar that prepares you for that exam the first time.

This license allows the digging, movement and placement of material forming the surface of the earth, other than water, with hand and power tools, machines and explosives to cut, fill, excavate, grade, backfill and perform other similar excavating, grading and trenching operations.

License Requirements

All contractors are required to pass the Business Management Survey exam in addition to a trade exam in order to become licensed.

Pre-Approval is required. Applicants must document a minimum of four (4) years experience in the classification sought.

Bonding, Insurance and a Current Financial Statement are also required.

Reciprocity

The state of Nevada has reciprocal agreements with California, Arizona & Utah for many classifications. Applicants must have at least 7 years experience and meet all licensing requirements.

Continuing Education

Nevada does not currently require Continuing Education.

The Exam

The testing company is PSI. It is a closed book exam.

The Excavating & Grading Exam is a multiple choice, open-book, timed test. There are 40 questions and a 1.5 hour time limit. A minimum of 28 questions (70%) must be correct to pass the exam.

Topics include Earthwork Construction, Safety & Tools.

You will receive your score immediately following the exam.

The exam fee is $95 for one exam or $134 for one trade plus the Management Survey Exam.
