About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Perry County Health Department — in southern Indiana along the Ohio River — licenses and regulates plumbing contractors as part of its public-health role over water and sewage systems, and conditions a plumbing license on a $20,000 surety bond. The bond is a code-compliance and public-health guarantee: it stands behind your plumbing work being done to the County's adopted plumbing code.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Perry County (the obligee). If a licensed plumbing contractor violates the plumbing code, leaves cross-connections or unsafe work, or damages public infrastructure, the County or a harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Plumbers who pull proper permits and pass inspection treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
