What this bond does

Support contractor/subcontractor duties under the County registration resolution identified in the bond.

Who needs it
Commercial and applicable residential applicants matching company/DBA, principal contact and actual trade selections.
Who it protects
The County form names the Fayette County Building Department and conditions security on faithful duties and compliance with Resolution Journal G, Page 309 and amendments. It is not an unrestricted project performance/payment promise or liability policy.

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 current scope and accepted form

The current registration page links this expanded packet, not just the older commercial-only document. The residential exclusion is for work inside Washington Court House; the Building Department's own address there does not erase that distinction.

Both County and bonding-agency forms are accepted. The instructions require signatures/stamp or seal, bond number, actual beginning/ending dates and agency contact details. Applicable commercial specialty-trade State licenses and fire-protection certification are separate evidence, not a universal credential for every contractor.

Keep continuation and completed registration separate

The County form provides a one-year period renewed by continuation certificate. A lapsed bond requires re-registration under the packet; do not assume a continuation cures a lapse. Its 30-day mailed cancellation condition does not promise application speed or add another $10,000 limit each year.

Purchase Now opens RLI. Confirm the actual principal, County recipient, accepted $10,000 form and dates, then check execution and send complete registration through the permitted in-person, mail or email route. The County requires registration before construction and does not schedule inspections before registration is complete.
