Get your surety bonds fast: NSCB license bonds, bid and performance bonds, payment bonds, and specialty bonds for Nevada contractors across Las Vegas, Reno, and statewide.
Nevada licenses contractors through the Nevada State Contractors Board (NSCB). A license is required for any construction work with a value of $1,000 or more, including labor and materials. Every licensed contractor must carry a surety bond as a condition of the license.
Bond amounts are set by the NSCB based on the contractor's license limit, which caps the dollar value of any single project the contractor can take on. License limits range from $50,000 to unlimited, and the bond amount scales with the limit. Contractors can apply for a higher limit as their business grows, and a larger bond supports the higher classification.
Nevada bonds its public jobs through Nevada Revised Statutes on public construction contracts. Infrastructure work under NDOT requires bonds too. Standard Nevada amounts go out same-day once you apply.

Get answers to common questions about contractor bonding requirements, costs, and processes for Nevada construction professionals.
Yes. The NSCB requires every licensed contractor to carry a surety bond. This applies statewide to general engineering, general building, and specialty contractors for any work of $1,000 or more. You cannot obtain or maintain a license without an active bond.
Bond amounts are set by the NSCB and scale with your license limit. A contractor with a $50,000 limit carries a smaller bond than one with an unlimited limit. You pay an annual premium that is a percentage of the bond amount based on your credit.
The NSCB issues licenses with monetary limits that cap the dollar value of any single project you can take on. Limits range from $50,000 to unlimited. You can apply for a higher limit as your business grows, backed by a correspondingly larger bond.
Correct. Nevada Revised Statutes mandates the pair on public construction contracts, covering the supply chain and completion risk.
The premium is yearly and proportional to the bond. Healthy financials bring the rate down.
Most are same-day. A brief application clears standard Nevada bonds fast.
Yes. Bad credit changes what you pay, not whether you are approved. We write the full Nevada credit spectrum, including past setbacks.
Apply to the NSCB for a higher limit. The board reviews your financial qualifications, and a larger surety bond supports the higher classification. We can place the upgraded bond as part of the process.
A license bond satisfies the regulator and renews with your license. A bid bond is tied to a tender, ensuring you take the job and bond it.
Renewal is typically annual and matched to your license term. Pay the notice when it arrives and your standing holds.
No. Picture the bond as protecting your customers, with claims charged back to you, and insurance as protecting you. Nevada still mandates workers' compensation.
Yes. Once the Nevada authority or city has your registration, we issue the bond that fits it.
