Notes
Maine does not require a statewide occupational license for carpenters. Contractors may need to register as home improvement contractors with the Maine Office of Professional and Occupational Regulation (https://www.maine.gov/pfr/professionallicensing/), but individual carpenters do not hold a state-issued license.
