The City of Kerrville requires an electrical contractor to file a $5,000 bond with Development Services to register and pull electrical permits. The price is $100 flat — the same for every applicant. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















License bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that 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 City of Kerrville electrical contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
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.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond doesn't have one.
