About Romerico

Romerico makes the Oregon Construction Contractors Board (CCB) public contractor record easier to search and read. We use the state's own license, bond, and insurance data and present it in a clear, consistent format. Romerico does not rate, rank, or score contractors — we show the record as it stands, so you're in control of the decision.

Romerico is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Oregon Construction Contractors Board.

Search an Oregon CCB license

You can look up a contractor three ways, and results update as you type:

• By CCB number. The most reliable way. Enter the license number and Romerico takes you straight to that contractor. Contractors must show this number on their advertising, so it is usually easy to ask for.
• By contractor or business name. Type all or part of a business name or a person's last name. Sometimes less is better — a shorter fragment matches more spellings.
• By telephone number. Enter the phone number on file to find the matching contractor.

What Romerico checks

Each contractor profile reads the following straight from the CCB record:

• Dataset presence. Whether the license appears in the current CCB Active Licenses dataset. If a license no longer appears, Romerico reports that fact but does not determine the reason. Check the official CCB License Search for current status.
• Endorsement and license type, such as Residential General Contractor.
• Surety bond amount and the expiration date shown in the dataset.
• Liability insurance amount and the expiration date shown in the dataset.
• Workers' compensation classification. Whether CCB identifies the contractor as exempt or nonexempt. This field indicates whether workers' compensation coverage is generally required; it does not independently verify a current policy. Certain commercial exempt contractors may still be required to maintain personal-election coverage.
• Responsible managing individual (RMI), when one is required and identified in the CCB record.
• Original registration date for the license record.

What the status labels mean

Romerico marks the exception, not the norm, using a simple display rule — the marks describe what appears in Romerico's copy of the CCB Active Licenses dataset, not a rating or an independent determination of good standing. The homepage legend reads:

• Blank — Licensed, No Flags. The license appears in the current CCB Active Licenses dataset, and no required bond or liability-insurance expiration date in the dataset is earlier than the data snapshot date shown on the profile. A blank mark is not a verification of coverage — verify current status with CCB.
• Triangle (△) — Needs Attention. The license appears in the current CCB Active Licenses dataset, but a required bond or liability-insurance expiration date shown in the dataset is earlier than the data snapshot date. This means the record needs a closer look; it does not by itself establish that coverage has lapsed — Oregon contractor bonds, for example, generally continue until cancelled rather than ending on a displayed date. Verify directly with CCB. Only a concrete past date raises the triangle; a value simply absent from the dataset does not, and the absence of a triangle is not proof of compliance.
• ✕ — Not in Active List. The license no longer appears in the latest CCB Active Licenses dataset available to Romerico. The dataset does not say why — a license can leave the active list for several reasons. Check the official CCB License Search to determine the license's current status.

Before hiring a contractor

• Match the business name on the license to the business you are dealing with.
• Confirm that the CCB endorsement fits the type and scale of project. Some regulated trades, including electrical and plumbing, also require separate Oregon licenses or certifications.
• Check the bond and insurance expiration dates, not just the license's presence in the dataset.
• Review complaints and discipline in the official CCB record — look the contractor up at the CCB. Romerico does not reproduce that information.

Data source and limitations

License, endorsement, bond, liability-insurance, and related information comes from the CCB Active Licenses dataset on the Oregon Open Data Portal. We read the CCB data daily, though this schedule is not guaranteed; each profile displays the date of its data snapshot and links to the official CCB search so you can verify the record at the source.

Romerico is independent and is not affiliated with the CCB. The official Oregon CCB record is the authoritative source and should be used to resolve any discrepancy. Romerico does not reproduce complaint, claim, civil-penalty, or disciplinary details — review the official CCB record for the information CCB makes publicly available.

CCB makes this dataset publicly available through Oregon's Open Data Program. Public records requests may also be submitted directly to CCB under Oregon's Public Records Law.

Formatting and limited corrections

Romerico may format public-record information for readability — for example, standardizing the capitalization and spacing of business names and the presentation of telephone numbers and addresses. Romerico does not alter substantive license, endorsement, bond, insurance, workers' compensation, personnel, or status information.

Frequently asked questions

What is a CCB number?

It is the unique license number the Oregon Construction Contractors Board assigns to every licensed contractor. Contractors must display it on their advertising, business cards, and websites, and it is the most reliable way to look a contractor up.

How do I find a contractor by name?

Type all or part of the business name, or a person's last name, into the search box; results appear as you type. If a name does not match, the contractor may be on record under a different name — searching by CCB number is the surest match.

Does an active license mean insurance is current?

No. The CCB dataset is a dated publication, and a contractor's bond, insurance, or license status can change after the dataset is published. Romerico marks certain past expiration dates with a triangle (needs attention), but always confirm current standing through the official CCB License Search.

Does Romerico include complaint history?

No. Romerico does not reproduce complaint or disciplinary records. Review that information in the official Oregon CCB record before hiring.

How often is the information updated?

We read the CCB data daily and prepare the reports quarterly, but this schedule is not guaranteed. Each profile shows the date of its data snapshot.

Reports

Romerico prepares a quarterly report on Oregon CCB license data. The schedule is not guaranteed; each report shows the period it covers.
