Contractor Insurance Oregon

Comprehensive Coverage for Oregon General Contractors & Subcontractors

About Contractor Insurance in Oregon

Oregon contractors face significant risks on every job — from property damage and bodily injury claims to employee injuries and equipment theft. Oregon's Construction Contractors Board (CCB) requires contractors to carry general liability insurance and a surety bond to maintain their license. But CCB minimums are often insufficient for the actual risks contractors face.

Our agents understand the specific insurance needs of Oregon contractors — from general contractors and roofers to plumbers, electricians, and landscapers. We work with commercial carriers that specialize in contractor coverage to find the right protection at competitive rates.

The CCB minimum is 00,000 general liability, but most commercial contracts require M or more. Gerald Ross Agency can help you meet CCB requirements and client contract requirements.

Workers' Comp for Contractors
