What this bond does

This offering concerns the plumber's undertaking identified in a Chicago bond request. Match the applicant and stated plumbing duties to the required form.

Who needs it
The plumber or plumbing business named in the Chicago plumber's bond request.
Who it protects
The bond secures the stated undertaking for its named recipient. It does not provide the plumber with insurance for tools, equipment or its own job losses.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Use the plumber request, not another trade's form

Keep the requested plumber designation and any license or business reference with the application. A Chicago drain-layer bond or a statewide plumbing contractor offering should not be substituted merely because it also concerns piping work.

Purchase Now opens RLI in a new tab. After issuance, check the applicant and Chicago recipient wording, complete any required execution and deliver the bond as directed. Trade licensing and work permits remain separate.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Legal applicant named in the Chicago plumber's bond request.
  2. Plumber or business reference requested by the office.
  3. Required bond form, recipient, amount and effective dates.
  4. Keep the requested amount and effective period separate from the premium quoted for your application.

Questions about this bond

Is this Chicago's drain-layer bond?

No. This offering is titled Plumber's Bond. Match drainlaying instructions to the appropriate trade and requested form.

Can I substitute a statewide plumbing contractor bond?

Use the form and recipient requested for Chicago. A statewide offering does not automatically identify the same undertaking.

How do I apply through The Southern Agency?

Select Purchase Now for RLI in a new tab. Apply with the request, then review and complete the issued document before filing it as instructed.

How much will I pay?

The bond amount is the sum of the obligation or protection, not the purchase price. Review the premium and application conditions with the provider before paying. Any separately stated E&O limit is insurance coverage.
