FAQ
Common Bond Questions
What is a California Contractor License Bond?
It's a $25,000 surety bond the CSLB requires for most licensed contractors. It protects your clients and the state if you violate licensing law or fail to meet your contractual obligations — and it's a condition of holding an active license.
Who needs the $100,000 LLC Employee/Worker Bond?
Any California contractor holding its license as a Limited Liability Company must carry this $100,000 bond. It protects your employees against unpaid wages and fringe benefits and is required in addition to the standard license bond.
How much does a contractor bond cost?
You pay a small percentage of the total bond amount each year, not the full amount. Your rate depends on credit, license history, and bond type. Many qualified contractors pay well under a few hundred dollars a year for the $25,000 license bond.
How quickly can I get approved?
Many applications are approved the same day. After you complete the short application, we return bond options quickly so you can purchase and receive your documentation without waiting.
