About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Homewood electrician bond guarantees

Homewood is a city in Jefferson County, Alabama, just south of Birmingham. Like most Alabama cities, it licenses the trades that pull permits inside city limits, and conditions an electrical contractor license on a $10,000 surety bond filed with the city.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Homewood (the obligee). The bond guarantees you follow the city’s electrical and licensing rules; if you violate them and the city or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and the city can suspend your ability to pull electrical permits — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.

Do I pay the $10,000?No. You pay $100. The $10,000 is the surety’s maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information — small fixed-amount license bonds like this one don’t need any. Most applications approve instantly; if a check ever runs, it’s a soft pull that never affects your credit score.
