ID fire sprinkler contractor bonds.
$275. Five minutes.
Idaho conditions a fire protection sprinkler contractor license on a $2,000 bond naming the State Fire Marshal as obligee. Three percent of $2,000 is $60, so this bond lands at our $275 minimum — the lowest price we charge, and the same for every contractor.

The whole pricing page.
$2,000 bond × 3% = $60, which is below our $275 minimum, so the price is $275 — one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Idaho licenses fire protection sprinkler contractors through the State Fire Marshal (within the Department of Insurance), and conditions the license on a $2,000 surety bond under the fire sprinkler rules at IDAPA 18.08.02. By filing the bond, you agree to work in accordance with the Idaho Fire Code and the other laws governing the trade.
It's a three-party guarantee: you (the principal), the surety, and the State Fire Marshal (the obligee), with harmed parties protected. If a contractor violates the fire code or sprinkler rules and someone is harmed, that party can recover against the bond — up to the $2,000 penal sum.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who do clean, code-compliant work treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
