About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Wayne County Health Department registers the plumbing contractors who work in the county, and conditions that registration on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a workmanship-and-code guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to perform plumbing work in compliance with the county plumbing code and the health department's rules.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Wayne County Health Department (the obligee). If a plumber's work violates code and the county or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay active for the life of your registration. Let it lapse and your plumbing registration can be suspended — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.

Wayne County Health DepartmentThe Wayne County Health Department requires this bond as a condition of its plumbing contractor registration; the $10,000 amount and the bond terms are set by the county health department, which administers plumbing registration. We issue the amount and form the county requires — send us your registration packet if you want us to confirm the current figure.

FAQs

Common questions.

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

How much is the Wayne County plumbing contractor bond? +
The premium is $300 — a flat 3% of the $10,000 bond amount, the same for every plumber. The $10,000 is set by the county, 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 Wayne County Health Department if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond? +
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many plumbers 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 registration bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
This bond is on the county's statutory cycle and renews 12/31. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your registration never lapses over a missed email.
