Oregon's Construction Contractors Board sets a fixed $15,000 bond for a residential restoration contractor endorsement under ORS 701.081 — the endorsement for water, fire, and mold restoration work. Ours is $450 flat, 3% of the bond amount, identical for every contractor. One soft credit pull, e-signed in 1–2 business days.
















Your CCB restoration endorsement is waiting on this bond. Here's the entire process — no broker phone tag:
Business details, owner information, effective date. That is the application — the only extra step is a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.
Most of these clear quickly; if underwriting needs anything, you hear from an underwriter within 48 hours. The credit check is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Pay online and receive the executed bond ready to file with your CCB restoration endorsement. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the board insists.
$15,000 bond × 3% = $450, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
Oregon's Construction Contractors Board (CCB) offers a residential restoration endorsement for contractors who perform water, fire, smoke, and mold restoration on homes — the cleanup-and-rebuild trade that often works directly with insurers after a loss. ORS 701.081 sets the bond for this endorsement at $15,000.
The bond is a homeowner-protection guarantee: a three-party arrangement among you (the principal), the surety, and the State of Oregon through the CCB (the obligee), with the homeowners you restore for as the protected parties. If the CCB issues a final order against you under ORS 701.145, the surety pays up to the bond amount.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety, and it is separate from your liability coverage. Confirm on your CCB application that the restoration endorsement is the one you are bonding; we issue whichever the board names. The bond must stay active for the two-year life of your endorsement.
These are the actual underwriting fields, including a one-time consent to a soft credit pull. Submit once and your bond is typically issued within 1–2 business days.
