Steps

  1. Recognize Arizona ROC issues separate residential (B/R) and commercial (A/C) licenses, plus dual (K/CR) licenses, specifically for swimming pool work — there isn't one universal 'pool license.'
  2. Key classifications per ROC's own classification list: A-9 (commercial swimming pools) and A-19 (same, plus solar); B-5 (general residential swimming pool contractor) and B-6 (same, plus solar); R-6/C-6 (residential/commercial swimming pool service and repair); and dual KA-5/KA-6 and CR-6 equivalents.
  3. Use ROC's online license lookup (roc.az.gov) to confirm which specific classification(s) a contractor actually holds, not just that some license is active.
  4. Match the classification to the job: a residential-only B-5/B-6 does not cover commercial pool work, and a plain General Residential 'B' contractor license explicitly excludes pool work per ROC's own scope language, requiring subcontracting to an appropriately classified pool contractor.
