Nearby in Santa Clara County: San Jose (2,246), Santa Clara (300), Campbell (255), Los Gatos (252).
17% of Cupertino's B licensees hold more than one classification — most often C-10 Electrical Contractor (5%), A General Engineering Contractor (4%). Extra classifications can change how carriers rate your general liability and workers' comp, so list every license class when you quote.
Business structure: 39% sole owners, 54% corporations, 6% LLCs; median time licensed 10.7 years.
For general contractors, underwriters focus first on: uninsured or underinsured subcontractors becoming the GC's responsibility at audit or after a claim; and third-party injuries on job sites. See the full coverage guide for general contractors for limits, endorsements and workers' comp rules.
Asena Capital Insurance Services compares multiple markets for Cupertino contractors and requests additional insured endorsements for you when a contract calls for them. Call (858) 925-9555 or request a quote — only your name, phone and email are required. CA License #6008596.
117 active B licenses have a business address in Cupertino (CSLB, September 2026); 38% carry workers' comp and 60% are filed exempt.
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.
