California · CSLB filing service
Get the right contractor bond on file
A bond with the wrong name, wrong amount, or a late filing does not count. We tell you which bonds your license needs and connect you with a surety. No fee from us: the surety quotes and charges the premium, and may pay us a referral fee.
Nothing is filed or charged until you approve the total.
What we do
- Work out which bonds your license needs
- Introduce you to a surety
- Check that the bond matches CSLB's record
What you need
- Your license number, if you have one
- Your business structure and who qualifies the license

Common questions
What does a bond cost?
The surety sets the premium based on your application. We do not sell bonds or set prices.
