About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A contractor license bond is a compliance guarantee. The City of Goodman registers contractors and conditions the license on a $10,000 bond that you'll follow the city's building codes and contractor ordinances.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Goodman (the obligee). If you violate the city's contractor ordinance and the city or a harmed party suffers loss, they can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and the city can stop issuing you permits — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Goodman contractor license bond?
The premium is $100 — the price our carrier sets for this specific bond, the same for every contractor. The $10,000 is set by the city, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $10,000?
No. You pay $100. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit.
How fast will I have the bond?
Contractor license bonds like this issue right after purchase — many finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check?
The application has no credit section at all, and most applications approve instantly. If a check does run on any bond, it's a soft pull that never affects your credit score — never a hard inquiry.
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.
