How to check Solsken Roofing on the Oregon record
roofing carries no separate license in Oregon — the CCB licenses the contractor instead, across several residential and commercial classes, with the active list published by the state
- The registry name, the contract name and the truck lettering should all agree; the status should be active.
- Ask for a certificate of insurance sent straight from the insurer. A registry listing does not prove coverage.
- Look at the expiration date and compare it with the dates in your contract.
- Start the lookup with the license number; use the business name only if the number fails.
