The Dumas Department of Permits and Inspections requires general contractors (type II only), landscape irrigators, sign contractors, swimming pool/spa contractors, water treatment equipment installation contractors, and house moving contractors to acquire and maintain the Contractor Registration Bond to get a license. Depending on your license type, you may also be required to acquire a form of liability insurance. Take a look at the Department’s Contractor Registration Requirements Sheet for further details. 

The Contractor Registration Bond is required by the Dumas Building Permits and Inspections Department as a way to ensure that city residents will be financially protected in cases where contractors commit a license violation or breach of contract. For example, if you are hired as a general contractor to perform a home improvement project, you will be expected to uphold all building regulations, as well as any contractual obligations. If you walk out on the job without completing it, the damaged customer may file a claim on your surety bond to cover losses incurred and the cost of hiring a new contractor to finish the project properly. 

It is always in your best interest to simply uphold your side of construction contracts. If problems occur, try to resolve them directly with the customer before license repercussions and a pricey bond claim process ensues. 

If you plan on continuing your career as a contractor in the City of Dumas, you will need to renew your license with the Building Permits and Inspections Department each year which means you will likely need to renew your Contractor Registration Bond as well. Luckily, the Jet team has created a quick and easy renewal process for all of our surety bonds.

Those who are enrolled in our monthly payment plan won’t have to worry about renewing the Contractor Registration Bond. Your bond will remain active as long as payments are made each month. 

As for those who purchased a one-year term in full, the Jet team will send you a renewal invoice far in advance of your official expiration date via mail and email. Simply fulfil the standard payment due and you will be all set with the Department for another term.
