Once again as a Hood River business owner Gorge Electric has helped me once again. Todd and his crew do a great job and are fast and professional. Thank you.

I've used them in the past with good results, but that was during the off season when they electricians are desperate to find work. This time not even a return call.

Full Verification Guide

Protect your home improvement project

Surety bond protection

Oregon's surety bond covers incomplete or defective work up to the bond limit. File a claim with the Oregon CCB within 2 years of project completion. How to file a bond claim →

General liability insurance

General liability covers property damage and bodily injury during the project. Ask for a COI (Certificate of Insurance) listing your address as an additional insured location.

Written contract required

Oregon law requires a written contract for residential projects over $2,000. It must include the CCB number, scope of work, and payment schedule. Contract requirements →

Workers' compensation coverage

Contractors with employees in Oregon are required to carry workers' compensation insurance. If a worker is injured on your property without coverage, you may bear liability. Verify coverage status before work begins.

Homeowners typically compare multiple licensed contractors before starting a project.

Before you hire

Verify this contractor carries active general liability insurance and a current surety bond. Request a Certificate of Insurance (COI) listing your property before any work begins. Oregon contractors must maintain minimum coverage - an Active license does not guarantee current insurance.

Compare contractor quotes

Before hiring, get 2–3 written estimates from licensed Oregon contractors. Compare Residential Specialty Contractorss in Hood River to ensure competitive pricing.
