California is one of the strictest workers' comp states in the country. As of 2023, almost every contractor with a CSLB license must carry workers' compensation, even with no employees on payroll (per SB 216). Misclassified class codes are the #1 reason contractors overpay — we audit and correct them before binding.
Common contractor class codes we place
- 5403 — Carpentry NOC
- 5645 — Residential framing & dwelling construction
- 5474 — Painting NOC
- 5551 — Roofing
- 5183 — Plumbing NOC
- 5190 — Electrical wiring
- 5213 — Concrete construction NOC
What you'll need to quote
- CSLB license number and class
- Estimated annual payroll by trade
- 3–5 years of loss runs (if currently insured)
- Subcontractor agreements and certificates
