California contractor records

Check the record before you sign.

Corbel reads a California contractor’s public record — licence, bonds, workers’ compensation, insurance, permits and labour history — and reports what it finds, with the source and the moment it was read attached to every statement.

No score, no rating, no ranking. Findings you can check, dispute and act on.

CSLB advises typing only the first ten to fifteen letters. For a personal name, put the surname first — “Smith John Con” rather than “John Smith Construction”.

Optional. The report is available on screen either way.

Optional, and worth filling in. Describing the work lets us check it against the trades this licence is actually classified for, and the contract price and deposit let us check the down payment against the legal cap in B&P §7159.5 — the lesser of $1,000 or ten per cent.

Adds the Department of Industrial Relations registration check, which only applies to public works.
