The question is asking what the contractors could have shown to prevent the state supreme court from reversing the decision to grant them injunctive relief. In this case, injunctive relief means allowing them to keep working without proper licensing. The court likely reversed the decision because the harm (in this case, the contractors being required to cease work until they obtained proper licenses) was not irreparable. Therefore, if the contractors had been able to show that their harm was irreparable (meaning it could not be fixed by obtaining proper licensing after the fact), the state supreme court would have been more likely to uphold the lower court's decision to grant them injunctive relief.
