What it is and who needs it.
What the Sheridan residential bond covers
The City of Sheridan registers residential contractors separately from commercial contractors and conditions residential registration on a $25,000 license bond, administered through its building permit office.
It is a three-party guarantee: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Sheridan (the obligee). The bond stands behind your compliance with the City residential building code and contractor ordinances — if you violate them 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. Residential contractors who follow the City code treat the $25,000 bond as a registration formality.
