This is the bond Lumber Liquidators, Inc. (LL Flooring) requires of a contractor joining its installation provider program in Oklahoma. The obligee is the company, not a state agency — the amount is whatever your installation provider agreement names, so you enter it. Premiums cost 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly.
















No underwriting queue on a retailer installer bond — enter the amount your agreement names, pay, and send the executed bond to your LL Flooring contact. Here is the whole thing:
Your entity type, business details, the bond amount your provider agreement names, and an effective date. That is the entire application.
Your exact price appears before you pay, and the bond issues the moment you do. The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to hand to the installation provider onboarding contact who asked for it. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
National flooring retailers sell installed jobs, but they do not employ the installers — they contract them. Lumber Liquidators, Inc., which trades as LL Flooring, runs an installation provider program for exactly that, and requires the contractors in it to post a surety bond before they take work under the retailer's name.
The three parties are you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Lumber Liquidators as obligee. The bond answers for your obligations under the signed installation provider agreement — finishing the job you accepted, doing it to the retailer's standard, and complying with the state and local law that governs the work. If an installation goes wrong and you will not make it right, the retailer (and, through it, the homeowner) has something to recover against instead of eating the loss.
Oklahoma is unusual here, and it matters. The state has no general contractor licence: the Construction Industries Board licenses plumbing, electrical, mechanical, roofing, and home inspection, and flooring is none of those. Whatever local business licence or permit your city requires, the state does not license a flooring installer — so this bond exists because the retailer requires it, not because Oklahoma does. It is not insurance for you: if the surety pays, you reimburse the surety.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this application does not collect credit information.
