A contractor license bond is a compliance guarantee. The City of Lincolnton wants assurance that a licensed contractor will follow the city's building codes, permit conditions, and local ordinances when working inside its limits.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lincolnton (the obligee). If you violate the license terms in a way that causes a covered loss, the city or a harmed party can claim against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your city license. Let it lapse and the city can suspend your license — so we track it and notify you ahead of expiration to keep your filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
