About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Ferndale licenses concrete builders who pour and finish flatwork — sidewalks, drives, approaches — much of it tied into the public right-of-way. The license bond is a workmanship-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to build to the city's standards and code.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Ferndale (the obligee). If your concrete work damages public property or violates the city's construction requirements and you do not make it right, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Concrete builders who pour to spec and clean up treat the $2,500 bond as a license 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 Ferndale concrete builder bond? +
The premium is $275 — our flat 3% minimum. Three percent of the $2,500 bond is $75, below the minimum, so the price is $275, the same for every concrete builder. The $2,500 is set by the city, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $2,500? +
No. You pay $275. The $2,500 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond? +
License bonds like this are among the thousands of 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.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount city license bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the license. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your license never lapses over a missed email.
