Question 1

What is a CSLB-compliant home improvement contract?

Accepted Answer

A CSLB-compliant home improvement contract meets California Business & Professions Code §7159. It requires specific font sizes, headings, mandatory notices (mechanics lien warning, right to cancel, CSLB board notice, insurance disclosures), a progress payment schedule, and signed copies delivered before work begins. ContractBuilderAI generates all of this automatically.

Question 2

How long does it take to build a compliant home improvement contract with ContractBuilderAI?

Accepted Answer

Most contractors complete a fully compliant, signed home improvement contract in under 20 minutes using ContractBuilderAI. The industry average for manual contract creation is 3–5 hours per job.

Question 3

Does ContractBuilderAI work for Florida contractors?

Accepted Answer

Yes. ContractBuilderAI supports Florida DBPR-licensed contractors and generates contracts compliant with Florida Statutes Chapter 489 (contractor licensing and payment obligations), Chapter 713 (construction lien law), and §558.005 (construction defect notice), including the §713.015 lien warning and §489.1425 Recovery Fund notice.

Question 4

Is ContractBuilderAI free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — every account starts with 5 free contracts with full product access. No credit card required. Credits are only used when you send or export a contract.

Question 5

What happens if a California home improvement contract is missing a required notice?

Accepted Answer

Missing a required notice under California B&P §7159 can void your right to enforce the contract, file a mechanics lien, or collect payment in court. It can also result in CSLB discipline, including license suspension. ContractBuilderAI includes all required notices automatically and validates each section against your state's requirements in real time.
