About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Scottsbluff licenses contractors and conditions the license on a surety bond filed with the City. The bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your work meeting the city's building code and your compliance with Scottsbluff's permit and inspection process.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Scottsbluff (the obligee), with property owners and the public as the protected parties. If a contractor performs work that violates the code or the licensing rules and harm results, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

Because the City sets the figure, the amount is whatever the City of Scottsbluff names on your license application. Enter that figure and your premium is priced at 0.5% of the bond amount, with a $100 minimum — same honest pricing as every bond we write.

City of Scottsbluff — contractor licensingThe City of Scottsbluff requires this surety bond as a condition of a contractor license; the bond amount and terms are set by the City of Scottsbluff. We have not cited a specific municipal code section because the city ordinance number is not published in a way we can verify — confirm the required amount and filing details with the City of Scottsbluff building department.

After you buy

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.

How to file it

File with the City of Scottsbluff. Submit the executed bond with your City of Scottsbluff contractor license application or renewal. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the office insists.

What sets the price

The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, issued on the spot.

Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Scottsbluff set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
