State License
STATE GB-2/GB-98NM CID
Framing contractors operating in Santa Fe must navigate both state-level licensing through the New Mexico Construction Industries Division (CID) and local jurisdictional requirements. Whether working within the city limits or in the surrounding county, compliance hinges on holding the correct GB-2 or GB-98 license classification and securing project-specific building permits prior to breaking ground.
Adherence to the adopted New Mexico Building Codes is mandatory, with particular attention required for seismic bracing and structural integrity. Contractors should prioritize maintaining active insurance and scheduling mandatory inspections at key project milestones to avoid costly stop-work orders and potential legal penalties.
