About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Abilene registers specialty contractors by trade, and an appliance dealer contractor files a $1,000 surety bond to register. The bond is a compliance guarantee: it stands behind your faithful performance of the City's code on appliance connection and installation work inside city limits.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Abilene (the obligee). If a contractor violates the City's code or leaves the City to correct work, 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. Done right, the bond is just a line on your City registration checklist — and we keep your $1,000 filing continuous.
