About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Canton licenses plumbing contractors through its Building Department and conditions that license on a surety bond filed with the Chief Building Official — the standard amount is $10,000. The bond is a City-and-public-protection guarantee standing behind your compliance with Canton's plumbing code.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Canton (the obligee). The bond conditions you to save and keep the City harmless from loss or damage arising from your failure — or your employees' and agents' failure — to comply with the City's plumbing chapter.

The bond stays in force for each period your Canton registration is active. Let it lapse and your license is no longer in good standing — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out. The application collects no credit information, and we issue at $100 flat.
