About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Ascension Parish contractor bond guarantees

The Parish of Ascension licenses contractors who build, alter, or repair structures within the parish. As a condition of that license, Ascension requires a fixed $5,000 surety bond filed with its permits and inspections department.

The bond is a compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your adherence to the parish's building code and contractor ordinances and protects the parish and the public against losses from code violations or unpermitted work.

It is a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Parish of Ascension (the obligee). It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays a valid claim, you repay the surety.
