About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A contractor license bond is a compliance guarantee to the city. The City of Hephzibah conditions a contractor business license on this $1,000 bond so there is a financial backstop that you will follow the city's building, permitting, and licensing rules while you work in town.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Hephzibah (the obligee), with the city and the public as the protected parties. If a contractor violates the city's license or building requirements and someone is harmed, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for as long as your city license is in force, so we track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out to keep your $1,000 filing continuous.
