KY roofing contractor bonds.
$300. Five minutes.
Kentucky does not license roofing contractors at the state level. The $10,000 roofing bond is the requirement to join the Kentucky Roofing Contractors Association — a fixed amount, and ours is $300 flat, which is 3% of the bond. Five-minute application, no credit check.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Unlike most license bonds, Kentucky does not run a statewide roofing contractor license — there is no state agency that licenses roofers. The $10,000 roofing bond is instead a requirement to become a member of the Kentucky Roofing Contractors Association (KRCA).
The bond is a consumer-protection guarantee: it stands behind your contracts, so a customer harmed if you fail to perform the terms of a roofing job can recover against it. It's a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety, and the protected customer.
Because this is a membership requirement rather than a state mandate, confirm with KRCA (or whoever is asking) that the $10,000 surety bond is what they need. If a city or county where you work imposes its own roofing or general contractor requirement, that may be a separate filing — send it to us and we'll confirm.
