White Oak contractors are responsible for following all applicable permit and license regulations pursuant to Chapter 14 of the White Oak, Texas Municode. Failure to uphold these requirements can lead to licensure penalties and/or a bond claim. 

The main purpose of a Contractor Bond is to financially protect the person that hired the contactor in cases where actions of negligence, poor workmanship, and/or a breach of contract are committed. For example, a plumbing contractor that has been hired by a homeowner to install a new sink into a home will be expected to follow all plumbing and building codes during this project. If the contractor cuts corners and does not install the sink properly, this can lead to future problems for the homeowner such as water leaks and maybe even flooding. If complications such as these are discovered by the former client, it is in your best interest to go back and repair/reinstall the sink properly. An omission on your part to do so can lead to a pricey claim on your Plumbing Contractor Bond and a black mark on your business’s reputation.
