What this bond does

The retained product concerns wages and fringe benefits associated with U.A.P.P. and Plumbers and Pipefitters Local Union 142. It is payment security for an employer obligation, not a Texas plumbing license or a mechanical project performance bond.

Who needs it
A contractor or other employer asked to post security under the applicable Local 142 agreement. The official local website lists signatory contractors working in plumbing, HVAC and related services in the San Antonio area.
Who it protects
The labor agreement and accepted bond determine which workers, union entities or benefit funds are protected and which payment defaults are covered. A union directory alone does not identify every required obligee.

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 employer's actual signatory agreement

Local 142's official contractor directory identifies signatory businesses across plumbing, HVAC and service trades. Membership in a contractor directory does not establish the bond sum or the terms of a particular employer's agreement.

Obtain the agreement version and written request for security. Confirm whether the instrument addresses wages, contributions, or both, and how the named U.A.P.P. and Local 142 interests must appear.

Coordinate payroll, funds and security

Prepare the employer's reporting identity and the fund or union office handling the request. Ask whether the required amount is fixed or based on a payroll or contribution calculation, and whether multiple beneficiaries need separate documentation.

A public construction contract amount, a plumber's state license bond or another local's benefit schedule should not be used to fill that gap.

Purchase without replacing contribution compliance

Purchase Now opens Propeller's Local 142 application in a new tab. Enter the legal employer name and use the form and beneficiary wording from the request. Applying is separate from issuance and the recipient's acceptance.

After issuance, check those details on the bond, complete the required execution and send it to the office named in the request. Keep its acknowledgment and continuation or release instructions. Continue benefit payments and payroll reports under the agreement.

Questions about this bond

Is this a Texas plumber license bond?

No. It concerns Local 142 employer wage and fringe benefit obligations. Trade licensing and construction payment bonds serve different purposes. ERISA fidelity protection and employee benefit insurance do not replace this employer payment security.

Does appearing on the signatory contractor list prove a required amount?

No. The official directory provides organizational context, not an employer bond schedule. Use the applicable agreement and written request.

Will the bond cover all Local 142 funds?

Confirm the beneficiaries and scope in the accepted form. The product title alone does not establish that every fund is included.

Does the bond replace monthly reports or contributions?

No. Continue reporting and paying under the agreement. Buying security does not settle delinquencies or disputes.
