About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Kokomo contractor bond covers

Indiana has no statewide contractor license, so contractor requirements are set locally. The City of Kokomo conditions a contractor license on a $10,000 surety bond as a guarantee that you will follow city building and permit rules.

It's a three-party guarantee: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Kokomo (the obligee). If you violate the city's contractor or building ordinances — abandon a permitted job or leave city work unfinished — the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pull and close their permits cleanly treat the $10,000 bond as a license formality.
