Louisiana does not impose a statewide surety bond on plumbing contractors, but the City of Eunice conditions a local plumbing contractor permit on one, through its Occupational License, Permit & Code Enforcement Department. The City sets the bond amount on your permit; pricing is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum, after a quick soft credit check that never affects your score.
















No underwriting queue for the standard plumbing contractor bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the City. Here is the whole thing:
Your business and plumbing license details, the permit the City issued, and the bond amount it set — that is the entire application.
Most applicants are approved instantly and the executed bond generates as soon as you pay. If a check runs, it is a soft pull that never affects your score.
Submit the executed bond to the Eunice Occupational License, Permit & Code Enforcement Department at 300 South 2nd Street to clear your plumbing contractor permit.
Louisiana licenses plumbers through the state, but it does not impose a statewide surety bond on plumbing contractors. Individual cities are free to add their own requirements before they will issue a local permit — and Eunice is one of them: its Occupational License, Permit & Code Enforcement Department conditions a plumbing contractor permit on a surety bond.
The bond is a performance-and-compliance guarantee to the City: it backs your promise to perform plumbing work under permit according to the applicable plumbing code and the City's permit conditions, and to make the City whole if you don't. It is not insurance for you — if the City pays a claim against the bond, you repay the surety.
The Permit & Code Enforcement Department sets the bond amount case by case, on the permit it issues. We do not cite a specific ordinance section here because Eunice administers this requirement at the department level rather than through a separately numbered, publicly indexed bond statute — confirm your required amount on the permit before applying.
Submit the application with your plumbing license details and the bond amount the City set — the executed bond generates instantly, ready to file with the Permit & Code Enforcement Department.
