What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A contractor license bond is a compliance guarantee to the city. It promises the City of Mishawaka that you'll work to its building code and ordinances, pull required permits, and won't leave the city or a property owner holding the bag for code violations or unfinished, non-conforming work.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Mishawaka, Indiana (the obligee), with the city and property owners as the protected parties. If you violate the building code or ordinance, a harmed party can claim against the bond.
The bond must stay active for as long as you're a registered Mishawaka contractor. Let it lapse and your registration can be suspended — so we track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
