About licensed air-conditioning and refrigeration contractors in Queensland
In Queensland, most building work valued over $3,300, including labour and materials, must be carried out by a contractor holding a QBCC licence of the right class. Some work needs a licence at any value, including plumbing and drainage, fire protection, building design and site classification.
A licensed air-conditioning contractor in Queensland holds a licence from the Queensland Building and Construction Commission (QBCC) that names the classes of work they may carry out. The licence has to be held by the business you sign with: a director's personal licence does not cover their company, and a licence in one class does not cover work in another.
TradesField reads NSW Fair Trading, QBCC and VIC Building and Plumbing Commission and the Australian Business Register and lists every company with a air-conditioning, refrigeration & mechanical class in Queensland. Licence status is free to check. The Construction Background Report adds court, adjudication, ASIC and licence conduct records, graded A to E.

Air-conditioning and refrigeration contractors in Queensland: common questions
How do I check if a air-conditioning contractor in Queensland is licensed?
Search the company by name or ABN, or open its profile from the list on this page to see its licence number, classes and status. Then confirm the licence on the Queensland Building and Construction Commission's own register before you sign or pay a deposit, because registers change daily.
How many licensed air-conditioning and refrigeration contractors are there in Queensland?
1,182 companies in Queensland hold a licence with a air-conditioning, refrigeration & mechanical class, and 1,170 of them show a current licence as of 8 November 2026. Sole traders are not listed, only companies and trusts.
Does a air-conditioning contractor need a licence in Queensland?
In Queensland, most building work valued over $3,300, including labour and materials, must be carried out by a contractor holding a QBCC licence of the right class. Some work needs a licence at any value, including plumbing and drainage, fire protection, building design and site classification.
What licence classes do air-conditioning and refrigeration contractors in Queensland hold?
By number of companies: Mechanical Services - Air-conditioning and Refrigeration (Limited Design) (999), Mechanical Services - Air-conditioning and Refrigeration (Unlimited Design) (132), Air Handling Duct Installation (33), Air Conditioning (3), Refrigeration (3), Refrigeration, Airconditioning And Mechanical Services Restricted To Multipackaged Residential Airconditioning Equipment And Plant (2) and Refrigeration, Airconditioning And Mechanical Services Restricted To Self-Contained Window Package Residential Airconditioning Installation (1). The class has to cover the work in your contract.
What should I check before engaging a air-conditioning contractor?
That the licence is current and its class covers the work, that it is held by the business named on the contract and invoice (not a director or a related company), that the ABN is active, and that you hold current insurance certificates. Court, payment dispute and insolvency records are in the Construction Background Report.
Listings come from NSW Fair Trading and QBCC and VIC Building and Plumbing Commission records and the Australian Business Register. Only companies and trusts are listed. Confirm a licence with the regulator before you sign or pay a deposit.
A listing is a record, not a recommendation.
TradesField brings public register records together so checking a contractor is quicker. It does not replace the authorities that keep them. Records can change after we read them, and a register can hold something we have not matched, so check licences, company status and court records directly with the QBCC, ASIC, the courts and the relevant state regulator before you rely on them, sign a contract or pay a deposit.
