The City of Canton is the seat of Madison County, north of Jackson. Like other Mississippi cities, it conditions a local contractor license or privilege on a surety bond as a condition of doing construction work inside the city.
The bond is a compliance-and-consumer-protection guarantee to the city: it stands behind your compliance with Canton’s building and licensing rules and answers for work that violates them. The City of Canton is the obligee, and city residents who hire you are the protected parties.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Because the city sets the required amount, we issue whatever figure your license application names, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the city required — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
