About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the contractor license bond covers

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.
