A crucial aspect of your registration is having an active bond, which means it needs to be renewed just like your license. When it is time to renew your bond (December 31st for Sewage Installer/Hauler Bonds or the end of the Plumber or Contractor Bond term), Jet will send you a renewal notice via mail and email. You can choose either to renew your bond but it’ll only take a minute to verify your information and submit payment for the new term.
Working as a contractor in Fairfield County means that you are complying with the rules and regulations of your license to prevent harm to the County and those who live in it, found in the agreement of your license and the Ohio Revised Code. You are bound to perform in a workmanlike manner that doesn’t cause damages or leave a job unfinished, whether by accident or by a lack of skill or attention. Failure to conduct business according to these standards can lead to a claim on the bond to account for materials or labor needed to bring the project into compliance.
