What is an Irrigation Contractor Bond?
A surety bond is required of every irrigation contractor – whether an individual or business entity – by the North Carolina Irrigation Contractors' Licensing Board before installing, expanding, constructing, or repairing an irrigation system within the State of North Carolina.
A surety bond should be submitted before the issuance of a license.
Compliance with the applicable state laws and rules is one of the reasons for this license requirement.
The surety bond will also be used to compensate any person that will suffer damages or losses from the irrigation contractor’s potential wrongdoings.
This includes violating his or her contractual obligations such as failure to repair any defects on the irrigation system due to faulty workmanship or faulty materials provided by the irrigation contractor.
When this happens, the necessary amount will be retrieved from the bond through a bond claim.
