What this bond does

The bond supports the business's Oregon CCB home inspection endorsement. That endorsement is limited to home inspection services rather than general construction or repair contracting.

Who needs it
Oregon home inspection businesses applying for or maintaining the Home Inspector Services contractor endorsement.
Who it protects
CCB describes surety security as protection supporting payment of covered final orders when a contractor fails to pay. The bond operates separately from the business's insurance.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Use the inspection-only endorsement

CCB lists Home Inspector Services as a limited-scope endorsement. Its requirements include an owner or employee who is a certified home inspector.

Prepare the business's contractor application and the responsible inspector's certification. A bond does not expand the endorsement to repair or construction work outside its scope.

Separate the bond from liability insurance

The board lists a $15,000 bond and $100,000-per-occurrence insurance for this endorsement. The first figure is security; the second describes separate insurance.

Keep both documents in your licensing file. The bond supports the CCB's covered final-order process; liability insurance is a separate part of the endorsement requirements.

File the bond with the contractor application

CCB instructs applicants to send the bond with the application rather than separately. Review the issued document and coordinate it with insurance evidence and the remaining application materials.
