Fairfield County plumbing bonds.
$100 flat.
The Fairfield County Health Department requires a $20,000 bond to register as a plumbing contractor and do plumbing work in the county. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the price you pay, the same for every contractor. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A Fairfield County plumbing contractor bond is a guarantee to the Fairfield County Health Department that you'll do plumbing work in compliance with the county's plumbing code and the Health Department's rules. In Ohio, county health departments administer local plumbing programs, and Fairfield County conditions your registration on this bond as a public-health-and-safety backstop.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Fairfield County Health Department (the obligee). If your work violates the plumbing code or you damage property and don't make it right, the Department — 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 register and work to code treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
