About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Cairo gas fitter bond guarantees

The City of Cairo operates its own municipal natural-gas utility, and licenses the contractors who connect and service gas lines on that system. The gas-fitter bond is a workmanship and code-compliance guarantee: it backs your work to the City’s gas code so faulty installations don’t endanger the public or the system.

It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Cairo (the obligee). If a gas fitter’s defective or non-conforming work damages the City’s system or harms a customer, the City can recover against the bond up to its $1,000 limit.

It is not insurance for you — if the City recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. Gas fitters who pull permits and pass inspection treat the bond as a license formality. The bond must stay active for the life of your license; we notify you 60 and 30 days out.

City of Cairo — Gas Fitter LicenseThe City of Cairo requires this $1,000 surety bond as a condition of its gas-fitter license, issued by the City in connection with its municipal gas utility. The bond amount and terms are set by the City’s ordinance governing gas-fitting work on the City system — confirm the current requirement with the City when you apply.

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 $1,000 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 Cairo. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the City of Cairo with your gas-fitter license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $1,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
