How much does a well and pump contractor license bond cost in Colorado?
The Water Resources Division of the Colorado Department of Natural Resources requires water well and pump installers to post a $20,000 surety bond. These bonds must be renewed each year on January 31, meaning the price may be prorated. However, these bonds can be issued instantly starting at just $100.
Why do I need this bond?
Colorado water well and pump installation bonds cover financial losses consumers might suffer if unlawful work is executed by a principal (well driller or pump installation contractor). This bond requires the principal to complete all required duties, including, but not limited to:
- building the well in such a manner that its surroundings can be kept in a sanitary condition
- constructing the well in an adequate size in compliance with the well permit
- maintaining natural protection against pollution of water-bearing formations

The company’s physical address, licensees, and type of licenses covered by the bond must be listed on the form. The bond term should correspond with the license term of February 1 through January 31.
If the bond is to be canceled, at least 30 days' notice must be provided to the Colorado Board of Examiners of Water Well Construction and Pump Installation Contractors.
