Georgia Contractor Bonds

Georgia Water Well Contractor and Driller Performance Bond

The Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Environmental Protection Division requires water well contractors and drillers to become licensed and adhere to all applicable guidelines from the Water Well Standards Act – Laws OCGA 12-5-120 and the Water Well Standards Act - Rules.

Water well and drilling contractors must post a $30,000 surety bond before they can become licensed and registered. These bonds expire June 30 on a two-year term, which means that the exact term of the bond may be longer or shorter than two years depending on the bond’s effective date. A surety underwriter must examine the bond application, personal and financial credit history, and take into account the bond’s term when determining whether and at what premium a bond can be issued.
