About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A Brunswick contractor bond is a compliance guarantee to the city. It backs your promise to follow the City of Brunswick's building and zoning code, pull required permits, and perform registered work to code.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Brunswick (the obligee). If you damage public property, leave a permit unresolved, or violate the city code, the city — or a harmed party — can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pull their permits and finish their work treat the bond as a registration formality, nothing more.

City of Brunswick — Building DepartmentThe City of Brunswick requires a $25,000 surety bond as a condition of contractor registration; the bond amount and terms are set by the City of Brunswick Building Department. The bond runs to the City of Brunswick as obligee and renews on the statutory December 31 date.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the City of Brunswick contractor bond? +
The premium is $750 — a flat 3% of the $25,000 bond amount, the same for every contractor. Brunswick set the bond at $25,000, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $25,000? +
No. You pay $750. The $25,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond? +
Municipal license bonds like this usually issue right after purchase — many contractors finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount municipal bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
Brunswick ties renewal to the statutory December 31 date. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your registration never lapses over a missed email.
