A plumber licensed by the Village of Hempstead has to supply and maintain a $2,000 surety and street-opening combination bond with a company the Village approves, guaranteeing faithful compliance with the Village Plumbing Code and restoration of any street or sidewalk you open. Ours is $100 flat, the price you see is the checkout price, and the bond issues the moment you pay. Any credit screen is a soft pull only — it never affects your score.
















A village plumber bond is one of the simplest filings in surety. Here is the entire process:
Business details, an effective date, and a term. That is the entire application — no financials, and any credit screen is a soft pull that never shows as a hard inquiry.
This bond is checkout-priced at $100 flat, so it issues the moment you pay — your executed bond and power of attorney generate on the spot.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your plumber license application and street-opening permits at the Village of Hempstead. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
The Village of Hempstead licenses plumbers under Chapter 100 of the Village Code. An applicant who qualifies pays the annual license fee and must supply and maintain a $2,000 surety and street opening combination bond with a company approved by the Village, conditioned on faithful and complete compliance with the Village Plumbing Code.
The combination form does two jobs at once. As a license bond it stands behind your plumbing work under the code. As a street-opening bond it guarantees that when you excavate in the village right-of-way — tapping a main, running a service line, repairing a sewer lateral — you restore the street, sidewalk, and curb to their prior condition. The Village of Hempstead is the obligee; you are the principal.
It is not insurance for you — if the Village recovers against the bond, you repay the surety. The license has to stay continuously bonded, so we track your term and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
These are the actual issuing fields — business details, an effective date, and a term. That is the entire application.
