To obtain a C32 Parking and Highway Improvement Contractor License in California, you must complete a specific procedure. This procedure commonly involves submitting an application and passing two state-mandated exams: the Law & Business Exam and the C32 Trade Exam.

With a C32 Parking and Highway Improvement Contractor license in California, you’re qualified to enhance and maintain various paved surfaces, including parking facilities, highways, roadways, airports, and game courts. This license allows you to apply protective coatings to surfaces like concrete and asphalt, adding layers that increase durability, improve traction, and protect against wear. It also permits the installation of essential safety features, such as vehicle stops and guard rails, which help manage traffic flow and ensure the safety of pedestrians and drivers.
Beyond protective coatings and barriers, a C32 license authorizes you to install mechanical traffic-control devices like parking barriers and gates, which regulate vehicle access and flow. You’re also able to mark directional lines, arrows, and symbols that guide vehicles safely within parking areas and along roadways. Additionally, this license includes placing reflective buttons and markers on paved surfaces, enhancing visibility and providing tactile cues for drivers, especially in low-light conditions. While the C-32 license covers surface preparation for protective coatings, it does not permit repaving or resurfacing work. For repaving projects, you would need to secure either a C12 Earthwork and Paving license or an A General Engineering Contractor license.
The costs associated with obtaining a contractor's license typically include:
