About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the gas contractor bond actually covers

Gas installation work — running fuel-gas piping, setting meters, connecting appliances — carries real public-safety risk, so Escambia County registers gas installation contractors and conditions that registration on a surety bond.

The bond is a compliance guarantee: that you will perform gas installation work in accordance with the County’s adopted fuel-gas code and the conditions of your permits. If defective or unpermitted gas work causes harm, the affected party or the County can recover against the bond.

You (the principal) post the bond, an A-rated surety stands behind it, and Escambia County is the obligee. We issue the amount the County set, pricing from $100 with no credit information collected in the application.

Escambia County contractor registrationEscambia County requires a surety bond as a condition of registering as a gas installation contractor and pulling gas permits in the County.
