About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Cordele master plumber bond guarantees

A master plumber bond is a code-compliance and workmanship guarantee to the city. The City of Cordele requires it of licensed master plumbers so the City has a financial backstop that plumbing work is done to code and in line with the City’s ordinance.

It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Cordele (the obligee). If a master plumber’s defective or non-conforming work violates the City’s plumbing code and someone is harmed, the City or the harmed party can recover against the bond up to its $5,000 limit.

It is not insurance for you — if the City recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. Master plumbers 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.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Cordele master plumber bond? +
The premium is $275 — our minimum. The bond amount is fixed at $5,000 by the City of Cordele, and 3% of $5,000 ($150) falls under the $275 minimum, so it’s $275 for every master plumber.
Do I pay the $5,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $5,000 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? +
No — the application has no credit section. Small fixed-amount license bonds like this one don’t need one.
Where do I file it? +
With the City of Cordele’s licensing / building office, alongside your master-plumber license application. We deliver the executed bond by email ready to submit.
