About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Dayton licenses warm air heating contractors and conditions that license on a $10,000 surety bond filed with the City, along with proof of liability insurance. The bond is a City-and-public-protection guarantee standing behind your compliance with Dayton's heating contractor requirements.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Dayton (the obligee). If you fail to comply with the City's requirements and someone is harmed, the City can recover against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.

The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and your license is no longer in good standing — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

How much is the Dayton warm air heating contractor bond? +
The premium is $300 — a flat 3% of the $10,000 bond amount, the same for every contractor. Dayton sets the $10,000, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $10,000? +
No. You pay $300. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the City if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond? +
The City of Dayton requires it as a condition of a warm air heating contractor license, filed with the City along with a certificate of liability insurance.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Fixed-amount municipal license bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond must stay active for the life of your Dayton license. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your license never lapses over a missed email.
