Getting a contractor license bond in Utah is necessary for any contractor who desires to conduct business within state borders, and it is required by the state of Utah as a protection for customers who avail themselves of services provided by that contractor.

Key Highlights

  • A Utah contractor license bond is considered essential by the state because it will tend to enforce compliance with the requirements listed in Title 58 of the Utah Construction Trades Licensing Act.
  • Any contractor who subverts or violates the requirements listed in Chapters 1 or 55 of Title 58 will be considered to be guilty of non-compliance.
  • A customer who feels that a contractor has violated the terms of an agreement could potentially file a claim against the contractor license surety bond.

An applicant for a Utah contractors bond would have to contact the state for the appropriate application form and submit all required documentation, as well as the fee for applying. The actual Utah contractors bond would be issued by a surety company that specializes in bonds and insurance, and this application is also the responsibility of the contractor.

To be absolutely sure about whether or not you are required to purchase a Utah contractor license bond, it will be necessary to verify that with the Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing within the state. Generally speaking, all general building contractors, engineering contractors, and both residential and commercial contractors will have to be bonded according to state requirements.

The Utah Division of Occupational and Professional Licensing requires bond amounts ranging from $15,000 to $50,000, depending on the classification: $15,000 for specialty trade contractors, $25,000 for residential and small commercial contractors, and $50,000 for general building or engineering contractors.

The actual cost to purchase the bond — known as the premium — is typically 1 to 10% of the bond amount annually.
