What it is and who needs it.
What the Crestwood contractor bond covers
Like most St. Louis County municipalities, the City of Crestwood, Missouri requires contractors who work within city limits to register with the city and post a contractor license bond before pulling building permits. The bond is a guarantee to the city, not insurance for you.
It backs your compliance with the City of Crestwood's building and permit code — that you'll perform permitted work to code, correct defective work, and protect city property. The City of Crestwood is the obligee; you are the principal; the surety stands behind you.
If you violate the city's code and the city or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety. We issue the amount Crestwood requires, priced from $100, with no credit check up to $100,000 in the application.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
