What this bond does
Provide the surety document required in Markham's contractor-registration application for the relevant discipline.
- Who needs it
- Contractors registering for City work, with subcontractors registered separately and the form's stated plumbing exception applied to the proper applicant.
- Who it protects
- The application names the City of Markham as bond holder. Use its accepted surety form for the precise recipient designation and conditions; the City's insurance certificate-holder entry is a different document.

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.

Questions about this bond
Does the form require separate registration for each discipline?
Yes. It says separate registration is required for each discipline and that subcontractors must register separately. That does not establish how many bond documents the City will accept for a particular business; match its actual request.
What plumbing exception does the updated form state?
Its additional-requirements page expressly says the bond is not required with the stated 055 plumbing credential. Use that applicant-specific instruction rather than assuming every licensed trade is exempt.
Can my documents use different business names or addresses?
The application requires corresponding names, businesses and addresses across all documents. Resolve mismatches before submission; the company-address field does not accept a post-office box.
