About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A City of Jamestown contractor license bond is a local compliance guarantee. It promises the City — and the residents you work for — that you'll do contracting work in line with the city's building and licensing rules and correct work that violates them.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Jamestown (the obligee). If you violate the city's contractor requirements, a harmed party can recover against the bond up to its full amount.

The bond must stay active while your registration is current. Let it lapse and the City can suspend your ability to pull permits — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your filing continuous.
