What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Kerrville requires an electrical contractor working for hire in the city to register with Development Services and post a $5,000 surety bond before electrical permits are issued. The bond is a compliance guarantee: it stands behind your electrical work meeting the city's adopted code and the terms of your registration.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Kerrville (the obligee), with the city and harmed property owners as the protected parties. If a contractor violates the electrical code or the conditions of registration, the city or a harmed owner can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active any time you hold an active permit, so we track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
