A municipal contractor license bond is a code-and-conduct guarantee to the local government. Saugerties wants assurance that licensed contractors will follow its building code, pull required permits, and clean up after work that affects public or private property.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town/Village of Saugerties (the obligee). If you violate the municipality's contractor ordinance or leave damage the code makes you responsible for, the municipality or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your contractor license. Let it lapse and Saugerties can suspend your license — so we track it and notify you ahead of expiration, keeping your filing continuous.
Submit the application with the bond amount Saugerties required — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
