About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Midland registers small construction contractors before they pull permits and conditions that registration on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your work meeting the city building code and the terms of the permits you pull.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Midland (the obligee). If a contractor violates the building code or city ordinances and the city or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who build to code and close out their permits treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

City of Midland contractor registrationThe City of Midland requires a $5,000 surety bond as a condition of its small construction contractor registration, administered through the city's Building Inspection / Permitting department under the city's contractor-registration ordinance and adopted building code. The $5,000 amount is set by the city; confirm your exact requirement with the city and we will issue the bond to match.
