Every classification carries the same license bond. The premium is a percentage of it, set by underwriting, not what you pay in full.
Bonds a concrete contractor needs
The license bond is the same for concrete contractors as everyone else. Concrete work is permit-bond heavy: pouring curbs, gutters, sidewalks, and driveway approaches in the public right-of-way commonly requires an encroachment or street-improvement bond from the agency, and public and development flatwork is bonded with performance and payment bonds.
Required of every CSLB-licensed contractor, in every classification.
For curb, gutter, and sidewalk work in the public right-of-way.
For permitted improvement work tied to a city or county estimate.
