A mechanical contractor — plumbing, heating, refrigeration, and related trades — registers with a $10,000 bond. Ours is $150 flat — the price you see is the checkout price — with a short application that collects no credit information.
















Contractor registration bonds are about the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section.
Registration bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your mechanical contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Alaska registers mechanical contractors — plumbing, heating, ventilation, refrigeration, and related mechanical trades — through DCCED, and conditions registration on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond stands behind your work and your compliance with the contractor registration law.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the State of Alaska (the obligee), with harmed property owners and laborers as the protected parties. If you fail to perform or leave covered unpaid claims, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond must stay active for the life of your registration, so we track it and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this application doesn't collect credit information.
