Frequently asked questions

How many licensed general contractors are in Sunnyvale?

213 active B licenses have a business address in Sunnyvale (CSLB, September 2026); 42% carry workers' comp and 55% are filed exempt.

Why does my workers' comp audit charge me for subcontractors?

If a sub cannot prove its own workers' comp coverage, carriers typically add that sub's payroll to your policy at audit. Collecting current certificates from every sub is the simplest protection.
