Surety Bonds in Texas

The Keating Agency writes contract and commercial surety bonds across Texas— bid, performance & payment, subdivision, license & permit, and deposit bonds. We confirm the local requirements and get you issued fast.

Contract surety in Texas. Texas public projects require performance and payment bonds under the Government Code (the state's Little Miller Act), with payment bonds protecting subcontractors and suppliers on public work.

Bid bonds in Texas. Bid bonds (commonly 5% of the bid) are standard on Texas public work, with TxDOT a major obligee. The successful bidder posts performance and payment bonds before the contract is executed.

Subdivision & site improvements. Developers post subdivision / site-improvement bonds to the city or county to guarantee streets, drainage, water, and sewer per the plat and local subdivision ordinance.

Contractor licensing. Texas has no statewide general contractor license, but many municipalities and trades (and TDLR-regulated fields) require specific license or permit bonds.
