About this bond

What a maintenance bond is

A maintenance bond, also called a warranty bond, guarantees your finished work is free of defects in materials and workmanship for a set period, often one or two years. Sometimes it's built into the performance bond; sometimes the owner wants it separately.

In Nevada

No general Nevada maintenance bond law was found. NDOT performance bonds stay in effect for one year after completion, under NRS 408.357.

You need this bond if you're

  • A contractor finishing public works with a warranty period
  • A site contractor handing improvements over to a city or county
  • Paving, concrete, roofing and landscaping contractors
  • A developer whose subdivision bond is being released

What the surety looks at

Your business, credit and the finished project. Often handled together with the performance bond.

FAQs

Common questions.

Does Nevada law require maintenance bonds?

Usually the contract or the local agency sets it, not a statewide law. The contract states the amount and how long it lasts.

How long does a maintenance bond last?

As long as the warranty period in the contract, commonly one or two years after the owner accepts the work.

What does it cost?

You pay a premium, not the bond amount. The surety sets the premium after it reviews your application, usually as a percentage of the bond amount. We show you the terms before you commit.
