State License
STATE CSLB C-61/D-35Required for >$500
Pool service contractors in Daly City must navigate both state-level licensing requirements and local municipal codes. The Contractors State License Board (CSLB) regulates the trade at the state level, requiring a specific license for any project exceeding $500. Contractors must ensure they are properly classified to perform maintenance versus structural repairs.
At the local level, Daly City requires a business license for any entity conducting work within its jurisdiction. Furthermore, while routine chemical balancing is generally exempt from permitting, any mechanical or electrical upgrades—such as installing new heaters or pumps—must be permitted through the Daly City Building Division to ensure compliance with safety and energy efficiency standards.
