Questions about this bond
Is the required amount always $1,000?
No. Section 3.706 requires $1,000 or the full contract price, whichever is greater, for the covered contractor-for-others work.
Does the same bond trigger apply to work solely for my own use?
The cited bond clause specifically addresses contractor work rather than sole-use work. The permit requirement remains separate; ask the building official about your activity.
Does the ninety-day rule set the bond term?
No. It concerns beginning work under the permit. Do not turn that permit-start deadline into a bond expiration or release rule.
