About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Lumberton registers and licenses building contractors before they may work in city limits, and conditions that registration on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to follow the city's building codes and ordinances on the work you do here.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lumberton (the obligee), with the city and the public as the protected parties. If a contractor performs work that violates city codes or causes harm the city must remedy, a claim can be made against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow the code and pull proper permits treat the bond as a registration formality, and we track it so your $10,000 filing stays continuous for the life of your registration.

City of Lumberton — Building Inspection / contractor registrationThe City of Lumberton requires a $10,000 surety bond as a condition of building contractor registration before a contractor may work in city limits; the bond amount and terms are set by the City of Lumberton's permitting and inspection office. We have not cited a specific ordinance section here because the city's contractor-registration ordinance is not published online in a form we can verify — confirm the exact filing requirement with the City of Lumberton.
