What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A county contractor bond is a code-compliance and consumer-protection guarantee. Marshall County wants a financial backstop that registered contractors will follow its building code, permit conditions, and local ordinances on every job.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Marshall County (the obligee), with the public and property owners as the protected parties. If a contractor violates the county's code or permit terms, a harmed party can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for as long as you're registered. Let it lapse and the County can suspend your registration and pull your permits — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $20,000 filing continuous.
