Verified against the Washington State record on November 11, 2026
1. Contractor registration
Top Granite LLC is registered with the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries as a general construction contractor. One registration, under one business identity:
- Registration number: TOPGRGL744QE
- Status: Active
- Type: Construction contractor, general
- Valid through: November 5, 2028
- UBI: 604779505
You do not have to take our word for any of it. The state publishes the record and updates it itself.

2. Bond and liability insurance
Washington requires a registered contractor to carry a surety bond and general liability insurance, and to keep both continuously in force. Ours are on file with Labor & Industries.
We deliberately do not print the bond number, the policy number or the amounts on this page. Those change at renewal, and a number printed on a website goes stale without anyone noticing. The L&I record shows what is in force today, and it is the record an insurer or a general contractor will ask for anyway.

3. Business identity
Top Granite LLC is a Washington limited liability company. The UBI number, 604779505, is what ties the business name, the contractor registration and the state business records together.
If you are comparing contractors, the UBI is the thing to compare. Two businesses can share a similar name; they cannot share a UBI.

4. Workmanship warranty
Our installation work carries a two year workmanship warranty from the date of installation. That covers our labor.
The stone itself is covered by the manufacturer or the quarry, and that coverage varies by material and by brand. We tell you which applies to the slab you choose before you approve the work, so the two are never confused.
5. What these words actually mean
Licensed means the business is registered with the state to do construction work, and that the registration is current. In Washington the correct phrase is registered contractor, and the registration number is the one above.
Bonded means a surety bond is posted. If a contractor fails to pay for labor, materials or an award, a customer can make a claim against the bond. It is a limited amount, not unlimited protection.
Insured means general liability insurance is in force. It covers damage caused while the work is being done. It is not a warranty on the work itself; the warranty above is.
6. How to check any contractor in Washington
This takes about a minute and it is worth doing for every bid you receive, including ours.
- Open the L&I Verify a Contractor tool and search the business name or the registration number.
- Check the status reads ACTIVE, and read the expiration date.
- Check the bond and the insurance are listed and current.
- Look at the UBI. If the name on the bid does not match the name on the registration, ask why before you sign anything.
- Read the suit and claim history, if any.
If a contractor cannot give you a registration number, that is the answer.
