What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Columbia, Missouri licenses plumbing contractors who work within the city and conditions registration on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a guarantee to the city that you'll perform plumbing work in compliance with the City of Columbia's plumbing code.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Columbia (the obligee). If a plumbing contractor performs defective work, violates the city's plumbing code, or fails to correct deficient work, the city or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Plumbing contractors who work to code treat the bond as a registration formality. We keep your $10,000 filing continuous and notify you 60 and 30 days before expiration.
