About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of St. Mary's requires a $2,000 plumbing contractor bond as a condition of registering to work as a plumbing contractor in the city. It is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee standing behind your obligation to follow the city's plumbing code and properly restore any public property you disturb.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of St. Mary's (the obligee). If you violate the plumbing code or damage city property and don't make it right, 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. Plumbers who work to code treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

Do I pay the $2,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $2,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.

Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount license bonds like this one don't need one.
Where do I file it? +
