About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Walker conditions a local contractor registration on a $5,000 license bond. It’s a compliance guarantee: that you’ll do permitted work in accordance with the city’s building and permit rules and the conditions of your registration.

It’s a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Walker as the obligee. If you violate the city’s contractor or permit ordinances and the city or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pull proper permits and follow the city’s rules treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the City of Walker contractor bond? ▾

The premium is $100 flat — set by our carrier’s rate book for this bond, not a percentage of the $5,000 penal sum. Same for every contractor.

Do I pay the $5,000? ▾

No. You pay $100. The $5,000 is the surety’s maximum liability if a valid claim is made — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

Is there a credit check? ▾

The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly. If a check ever runs, it is a soft pull only — never a hard inquiry, and it will not affect your credit score.

How fast will I have the bond? ▾

Fixed-amount municipal license bonds like this are among the bond types that issue right after purchase — many contractors finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.

When does it renew? ▾

The bond must stay active as long as your city registration is current. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your registration never lapses over a missed email.
