Hinshaw Contracting LLC.

Washington L&I registers Hinshaw Contracting under the general specialty, and the state lists Raymond Hinshaw as a principal since 2014. Public-works filings from 2014 and 2015 show the business working for Washington State University, both times as a subcontractor. That pattern runs through the record: much of the work comes from other contractors bringing Hinshaw onto their jobs, alongside residential remodeling. Work on prevailing-wage public projects means the business has handled the paperwork and payroll reporting those jobs require. A business that works mostly as a sub for other contractors tends to find jobs through trade referrals. A homeowner with a straightforward remodel or repair in Spokane, Spokane Valley or a nearby town, who would rather work with someone who came through a referral, is the closer fit. Homeowners planning a large commercial build, or who want to request quotes online, will likely find other contractors better suited. Before comparing remodeling bids in the Spokane area, write down the scope in plain terms. List which rooms are involved, what is being removed, and what is staying. Note the fixtures and finishes you have chosen or still need to choose, and who supplies them. Ask each bidder whether permits are included and who pulls them. For older Spokane houses, ask how each bid handles surprises behind walls and how changes get priced. When every contractor quotes the same written list, the numbers can be compared fairly.
