Cairo gas fitter bonds.
$275. Five minutes.

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.
