The City of Eagle Pass requires mechanical (HVAC) contractors to file a $10,000 license & permit bond with the city to register. Ours is $100 flat — the price our carrier sets for this specific bond. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















Municipal contractor bonds are about the simplest thing in surety. Here's the whole process:
Business details and an effective date. No financials, no credit section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
Small fixed-amount license bonds like this one usually issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your Eagle Pass contractor registration at 100 South Monroe. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A City of Eagle Pass mechanical contractor bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee. The city wants assurance that the HVAC and mechanical work you permit is done to code and that the public and the city aren't left covering the cost if you don't follow the rules you registered under.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Eagle Pass (the obligee). If you violate the mechanical or building code under which you registered, the city — or a harmed party — can make a claim against the bond.
The bond must stay active for as long as you hold your Eagle Pass registration. Let it lapse and the city can pull your registration — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond doesn't collect credit information.
