What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Dothan licenses residential roofing contractors and conditions that license on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a consumer- and public-protection guarantee: it backs your compliance with the City's building and licensing rules for residential roofing work.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Dothan (the obligee), with the public protected. If you violate the City's roofing or permit rules and someone is harmed, they can recover against the bond up to $10,000.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Roofers who pull proper permits and follow the code treat the bond as a license formality.
