General Contractor

The general contractor icon represents a professional who oversees and coordinates construction or renovation projects. A general contractor is responsible for managing the day-to-day activities of a construction site, including hiring and supervising subcontractors, obtaining necessary permits, and ensuring compliance with building codes and regulations. The icon is often used in directories or listings of general contractors.

In real-world applications, the general contractor icon may appear on websites or apps that provide construction or renovation services, such as contractor directories, construction management platforms, or home improvement blogs. For example, it may be used on a website that allows users to find and compare general contractors in their area.

From a UX perspective, the general contractor icon communicates a sense of expertise, reliability, and professionalism. It helps users understand that the service or facility represented by the icon is a trusted and qualified partner for construction or renovation projects.

General Contractor is one of 167 icons in Map Icons, made by Scott de Jonge and released under Open Font License. It is drawn on a 50 × 50 grid.

Sign in (it's free), then open Get icon, Install with shadcn CLI, and pick your package manager to copy the command. It adds GeneralContractorIcon to components/icons/map-general-contractor.tsx: one file, a size prop (24 by default) and every SVG prop, with no icon package.

Copy it as React (from Get icon, or the Code section): a typed GeneralContractorIcon component you paste into your project, with no package to install. Only the icons you import reach your bundle. It works in Next.js and any React app.

Open Get icon, then Copy as code, and pick Vue, Svelte, Angular, Solid or Preact; the Code section shows each one too. Every version is one self-contained component with the SVG inside, and SVG and data URL copies are there for plain HTML and CSS.

With Pro, the shadcn.io MCP server lets Claude Code, Cursor or any MCP client find the General Contractor icon, or any of 167 Map Icons icons, and install it from a prompt.

It's drawn in currentColor, so it takes the text color wherever you use it: a class like text-primary recolors it. To bake a color in, set one in Customize before you copy.

Set width and height on the component, or a class like size-6. It's drawn on a 50 × 50 grid, so it stays sharp at any size. Customize also sets the size it exports at, its padding and rotation.

Yes. It follows the text color, so with text-foreground (or any theme token) it changes with your light and dark themes. The icon is a vector, so it needs no separate dark asset.

Next to a visible label it's decoration: add aria-hidden="true" so screen readers skip it. Standing alone, as in an icon button, give the button a name instead, like aria-label="General Contractor", so screen readers say what it does.

Yes. GeneralContractorIcon passes every SVG prop to the svg element, so <GeneralContractorIcon aria-hidden="true" /> works, and so do role="img" with aria-label, or a title child, when it carries meaning on its own.

Yes. Open Get icon, then Download file: SVG for code or design tools like Figma; PNG, WebP or JPEG at 512px; or an ICO favicon with 16, 32 and 48px inside. Each one uses what you set in Customize.

Yes. The Open Font License allows commercial use; the icons can't be sold on their own. The full terms are in the license, linked on this page.

No visible credit is required: Open Font License only asks that you keep the license notice if you ship the icons' source files. Icons installed with the shadcn CLI already start with a comment naming Map Icons, Scott de Jonge and the license.

Yes. Copying and downloading it is free, and the shadcn CLI install only needs a free account.

Its tags are construction, service, building and renovation. Each tag page lists the icons that carry it from every library, which is the quickest way to find a match for General Contractor in another set.
