About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Chickasaw licenses contractors and conditions that license on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your work meeting the city’s building codes and your compliance with the licensing ordinance.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Chickasaw (the obligee), with city residents as the protected parties. If a licensed contractor violates the city code or ordinance and someone is harmed, the harmed party or the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow the code and pull proper permits treat the bond as a license formality, and we keep your $10,000 filing continuous with renewal reminders 60 and 30 days out.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $10,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with the City of Chickasaw. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Chickasaw business license / inspections office. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price
