NV contractor's license bonds.
Flat 3%. Enter your amount.
Nevada requires every licensed contractor to file a surety bond with the State Contractors Board (NSCB) under NRS 624.270. The Board sets your bond amount — anywhere from $1,000 to $500,000, keyed to your license limit and classification. Enter the figure on your NSCB letter and we issue it at a flat 3%, $275 minimum.

What it is and who needs it.
What the contractor bond actually guarantees
Nevada licenses contractors through the State Contractors Board, and NRS 624.270 conditions the license on a surety bond (or an equivalent cash deposit). The bond is a consumer-and-claimant protection guarantee: it stands behind your compliance with Nevada contractor law and the people you do work for.
The Board fixes the bond amount with reference to your financial and professional responsibility and the magnitude of your operations — not less than $1,000 and not more than $500,000. In practice it is keyed to your license's monetary limit and classification, so a small specialty license and a large general license carry very different amounts. Your NSCB letter names the figure.
It is not insurance for you. If a homeowner, supplier, or employee is harmed by a violation of contractor law and the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who run clean jobs treat the bond as a license formality, and we track it so your filing stays continuous.
