What this bond does

The Licensing Board allows a surety bond instead of a financial statement showing the required net worth for a Group 2 initial or renewal application.

Who needs it
The legal business seeking or renewing a Group 2 general contractor license through the surety bond alternative.
Who it protects
The State of South Carolina is obligee. The stated beneficiaries are persons damaged by specified construction-contract breaches or unlawful acts or omissions in construction.

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 general contractor Group 2 schedule

The $60,000 security requirement differs from mechanical contractor amounts and from the general contractor bid and job limit. The Board requires the bond to be continuous and kept in effect while licensed unless qualifying replacement financial evidence is received. This bond is additional to other required bonds. Submit the issued and executed instrument with the appropriate licensing application.
