California Contractor's Bond for Roofing (CSLB)
A California roofing contractor bond is required of individuals who specialize in protecting structures from water infiltration by installing and repairing waterproof and weatherproof coverings.
Mandated by the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB) as part of the application process, a roofing contractor bond protects homeowners from financial loss due to improper or incomplete work.

How Roofing Contractor Bonds Work
Roofing contractor bonds ensure the project will be completed according to state regulations, building codes and terms of the contract. In the event you’re unable to fulfill the contractual obligations, the homeowner may make a claim against your bond to recoup any financial loss.
The surety will investigate the claim and, if approved, pay out the damages up to your $25,000 bond amount. From there, you’re required to reimburse the bond company.
