Black Hawk by the numbers

Our Black Hawk records cover 65 licensed tradespeople and contractor firms with a local address, 32 of them with a lapsed license.

State licensing boards are the main source here: we count 48 electrical licenses (9 masters, 17 journeymen, 5 residential wiremen) and 13 plumbing licenses (6 masters, 1 journeyman) in Black Hawk.

Most entries are individual tradespeople (40), not companies.

Board discipline: 2 Black Hawk records have a DORA discipline flag (1 plumbing, 1 electrical). 0 belong to licenses that are still active, so a current license alone doesn't rule out past discipline.

Black Hawk doesn't publish permits in a portal we cover yet, so no permits shown doesn't mean no permits pulled.
