About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A trade contractor bond is a code-compliance guarantee. The City of Sikeston licenses plumbing and electrical contractors and conditions the license on a $2,000 bond that you'll do the work to code and follow the city's ordinances.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Sikeston (the obligee). If you violate the city's plumbing or electrical code 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.
