NV residential contractor bonds.
Flat 3%. Soft pull.
Every licensed Nevada contractor files a bond with the State Contractors Board under NRS 624.270. The Board sets the amount per license — anywhere from $1,000 to $500,000 — and we issue it at a flat 3% with one soft credit pull that never affects your score.

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 cash deposit. The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your compliance with Chapter 624 and protects owners and others harmed by a violation of the contractor licensing laws.
The amount is fixed by the Board, not by you — set with reference to your financial and professional responsibility and the magnitude of your operations, but never less than $1,000 or more than $500,000. The bond is continuous, and the surety’s total liability for all claims is capped at the face amount no matter how many years it stays in force.
It is a guarantee, not insurance for you — if the surety pays a valid claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who do clean work and keep good records treat the bond as a license formality. We confirm the amount the Board assigned and issue it at a flat 3% with one soft credit pull.
