FAQ

California Performance Bond questions answered

California law requires performance bonds on all public works contracts (government projects) over $25,000. Many private owners and general contractors also require performance bonds from subcontractors on larger projects, especially in commercial construction.

Performance bond: guarantees you'll complete the project. Payment bond: guarantees you'll pay subs and suppliers. Bid bond: submitted with your bid to show you're serious — if you win and back out, the bid bond pays the difference in cost to the owner. Public works projects require all three.

Performance bond premiums are based on the contract value. Typical rates: 1–3% of the contract amount for smaller contracts, sometimes less for larger contracts with strong financials. A $500,000 contract might cost $5,000–$15,000 for the bond premium.

Performance bonds require underwriting that reviews your financial statements, experience, and work in progress. For smaller bonds under $500,000 with strong credit, approval can take 1–3 business days. Larger bonds may require a week or more. Start the process early — don't wait until the day before the bid is due.
