Oregon Contractor License Lookup

42,690 license records from the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB), refreshed daily. 52 of them are not valid right now.

How licensing works in Oregon

Oregon licenses through the CCB and splits contractors into residential and commercial, general and specialty. The CCB also publishes bond and liability insurance details, so an Oregon record shows more than most.

The Oregon Construction Contractors Board publishes its licensee file as public record, and we reload it every day. A license belongs to a named individual or company and stops being valid when it lapses, is suspended, or is not renewed. The record usually stays in the published file after that, which is exactly why lapsed licenses are visible here rather than quietly disappearing.
