Questions about this bond
Is $5,000 the published requirement for every contractor?
No. The schedule lists different sums for demolition and house moving, and different documentation for other categories. Match the actual request.
Does the $5,000 form protect every customer's payments?
Its conditions concern registration duties and specified City property/negligence protections. Do not substitute a universal project payment guarantee.
Can I assume an unsealed continuation is acceptable?
The form expressly says continuation/rider forms also require embossing or a validation seal. Confirm the actual accepted continuation and class with the City.
