How Much Does a Surety Bond Cost in Houston?
In Houston, surety bond costs generally range from $100 to $10,000. The city mandates a $25,000 bond for auto dealers, and there’s also a $2,000 requirement for sidewalk, driveway, curb, and gutter builders, among other bonds.
As an authorized surety company serving the Houston area, we sell bonds at a bond premium. Our bond premium rates are between 1% and 10% of the total bond amount. The rate you receive is based on your financial strength, your credit rating and your professional credentials.
We work with applicants with most credit scores, and we bond over 99% of our customers. With a credit score of at least 700, the bond premium rate is between 1% and 3%. With this credit rating, for example, a $10,000 public adjuster bond costs between $100 and $300.
