The California Disciplinary Contractors License Bond is required by the State of California Contractors State License Board.
The California Contractors State License Board (CLSB) requires that if a license has been revoked or suspended for a violation of contractors license law, the contractor must file a disciplinary bond. The California Disciplinary Contractors License Bond is required to reinstate, reissue or reapply for a new license. However, only some suspensions require the filing of this bond.
If appropriate, CSLB will attempt to mediate and help achieve a resolution without disciplinary action. However, complaints involving serious violations of Contractors’ State License Law, like, poor workmanship, abandonment, misuse of funds, failure to obtain a building permit, or failure to maintain workers’ compensation for employees, can result in formal disciplinary action, even if the licensee does not have a history of complaints.
