The City of Irving requires a contractor license bond to register and pull permits in the city. The bond amount depends on your trade and the City's registration rules — pricing runs 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.
















No underwriting queue for the standard contractor license bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the City. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the City required, and the effective date — that is the entire application.
The application collects no credit information, so most applicants issue as soon as they pay. Larger amounts may get a quick review.
Submit the executed bond with your City of Irving contractor registration. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the City insists.
A contractor license bond is a compliance guarantee. The City of Irving conditions contractor registration — and the permits that come with it — on a surety bond that backs your compliance with the City's building codes, permit rules, and registration ordinances.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Irving (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If you violate the City's contractor or permit rules — work without a permit, fail an ordered correction — the City can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who register, permit, and pass inspection treat the bond as a registration formality. We issue the amount the City set, priced at 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — the application collects no credit information.
Submit the application with the bond amount the City required — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file with your registration.
