The City of Lynchburg requires a $5,000 contractor license bond as a condition of its local contractor license. Our carrier's rate book sets the premium for this bond at a flat $100, issued instantly. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















A small fixed-amount license bond is the simplest thing in surety. Here's the whole process:
Business details, the type of contractor, and an effective date. No financials, no credit section.
Small license bonds like this are among the thousands 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 Lynchburg contractor license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A city contractor license bond is a code-and-consumer guarantee. The City of Lynchburg wants a financial backstop that you'll work to the adopted code and meet the obligations its local license imposes.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Lynchburg (the obligee). If you fail to meet the conditions of the City's contractor license, a harmed party can recover against the $5,000 bond.
Keep the bond active as long as you hold the license. Let it lapse and the City can act against your local license — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your filing continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information, so most approve instantly.
