Oregon requires construction contractors to be licensed by the Construction Contractors Board (CCB); electricians and plumbers also need a Building Codes Division license.
72% of the 890 firms on the Bend permit file match an active license in the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) active license file. Our match can miss a firm that files under another name, so a missing match is a reason to check, not a finding.
Ask the contractor for the license number and look it up at Oregon CCB license search. How to check a contractor's license in Oregon →
The middle value recorded on this contractor's matching permits. It's a permit value, not a quote or the final price. Ask for a written estimate.
Matching Bend permits in the most recent year of our data. It shows recent recorded activity here, not every job the company did.
For contractors with at least 5 permits of their own a year or more old, the share the city finaled. A permit can stay open because of paperwork or timing, so this isn't a workmanship grade.
How long their permits take from issue to final, using the city's dates, compared with other Bend contractors in the trade. Shown for firms with 10+ permits of their own.
Matched by name against the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) active license file. Name matching can miss a license, so always check the number yourself.
About the ranking: The score combines how much of this exact work a contractor has on record, how often their older permits reached completion (where we can measure it), how well their usual job size matches your budget, how recently they've been active, and how much of their work is near you. A measure we can't calculate is left out rather than guessed, and a thin record pulls the score toward the middle. A contractor whose matched license has a problem is listed after everyone else. You set the weights with the sliders on every list.
Bend specifics: Bend records one project value per application, so a typical cost is shown only for new homes, additions, remodels and decks. Electrical, mechanical and plumbing work inside a builder's new-home or remodel application counts toward permit totals but isn't used for completion or speed, because it finishes when the house does. Permits carry no CCB number, so licenses are matched by name; the state file lists active licenses only, and a firm that trades under an assumed name may not match. Electricians' and plumbers' Building Codes Division licenses aren't linked. Remodel & Alteration includes re-roofs and exterior work.
