Questions about this bond
What happens to the license if the bond is cancelled?
Northlake's application states that bond cancellation automatically revokes the license. Keep the required security in force and follow the City's instructions if your bond changes.
Is the insurance certificate the same filing?
No. The City application lists the $10,000 bond and insurance certificate separately, with separate company, number and expiration fields.
Does the bond let me skip the trade selection or credential?
No. The City application calls for the trade relevant to the proposed work and applicable listed credentials. Bond purchase alone does not issue the contractor license.
