About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Smyrna code compliance bond covers

The City of Smyrna Building Division requires contractors and builders working in the city to post a fixed $15,000 code compliance bond. The bond guarantees that your company follows the City of Smyrna construction codes and corrects any code violation discovered on permitted work — now and for one year from the date of final inspection.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Smyrna (the obligee). If a contractor leaves permitted work out of code and does not fix it, the city can recover against the bond up to the $15,000 penal sum to bring the work into compliance.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. This city code compliance bond is in addition to any statewide Georgia contractor license requirement. Contractors who build to code and pass inspection treat it as a registration formality. We issue the fixed $15,000 bond at $450, with no credit check.
