The City of Lago Vista requires a $10,000 bond to register as a licensed contractor. Ours is $100 — the price you see is the checkout price, the same for every contractor. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















A city contractor license bond is among the simplest in surety. Here's the whole process:
Business details, the type of contractor, and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit fields.
Fixed-amount city bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the City of Lago Vista's permit / contractor-registration office. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A contractor license bond is a code-compliance guarantee to the City of Lago Vista. Registering as a licensed contractor, you agree to follow the city's building codes and permit rules on the work you perform inside the city.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lago Vista (the obligee). If you violate the city's contractor ordinance or leave permitted work in violation of code, a valid claim can be paid up to $10,000.
The bond must stay active while your contractor license is current. Let it lapse and the city can suspend your registration — so we track it and notify you ahead of expiration to keep your $10,000 filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information for this bond.
