I first contacted Surety Solutions back in 2017 for a Process Server bond quote. The quote they... gave me was good. I had actually tried 3 other bond companies back then but it was Surety that stood out. And that's because of the really nice customer service that I received from Cryssi Brubaker, the Customer Service Agent that worked with me through our many email exchanges. She even extended my quote an additional 60 days after I told her that I was just considering the process server license at that time and hadn't applied for it yet. Ultimately, though, I didn't go for the process server license so I never got the bond in 2017. Fast forward to the present and I needed to get that same bond again for me and my wife's business, now in 2024. (Wow that's 7 dang years ago -oh well, I'll just call it God's timing 😊). So when it was time to get a bond for the Process Server license it was a no-brainer for me. I went online looking for Surety Solutions and voilà (Wa-Lah), there they were -with a fresh and newer looking website to boot. After obtaining my Process Server bond from Surety a few weeks ago, I ran into a problem with my State because the expiration date on the bond needed to be set to a specific date in even years (or in 2026). So I needed that to be fixed; like, pronto. It was late in the day on Friday when the State sent me an email with the issue. So I contacted Surety by email. But I wasn't expecting to hear back from them until maybe on Monday. However, and to my surprise, I received an email back in short order that same day from Jessi Wimer, the Surety Account Manager Associate. And wouldn't you know it, she was just as attentive, friendly and knowledgeable in her several email exchanges with me that it took me back to 2017 and Crissi Brubaker. That's when I knew I made the right choice all these years later to go back to Surety Solutions for my bond. In sum total, it was that Customer Service, friendliness and knowledge of my particular situation that won me over.read more

I cannot tell you how impressed I am with the customer service Jessi Wimer provided for not only me... but our company. As one of the owners I am in charge of licensing and realized last minute I needed two bonds on the very last business day of the year. Not only was she on it, responded promptly, but actually made it easy. I am so thankful for her and all her help. Because of her Surety Solutions will be my first and last call when I need a bond again.read more

Update - in 2023 i had to renew and Mickey Wolfe was great! They got me the bond ASAP, was... extremely helpful, diligent, and quick to respond. I was having problems getting in touch with anyone and Mickey came through ASAP. Thank you - Mickey needs a raise 5 star service!!Just received my bond for becoming a private investigator. cryssi from customer service was super helpful, as i kept messing up my application (sending in wrong format) and she was nothing but helpful with correcting this. I was also a bit worried about the process of obtaining a bond, as i never have, but it was shockingly easy and not expensive at all. Would re use if i need an upgraded bond.read more

I worked with Cryssi at Surety Solutions in order to secure a $900,000 conservator bond. Their... quote was by far the best out of several companies I requested quotes through ($2,110 vs. $3,500). Cryssi was always very helpful and responded very quickly during business hours and often during after hours via email. I will continue to work with and renew with their company especially if their quotes and customer service remain this excellent. Thank you again! MikeSo just an update to my original post. It was time to renew the conservator bond this year and Cryssi at Surety Solutions made the process extremely streamlined and convenient. I received an email stating it was time to renew the bond with a link to pay online. My rate didn't change at all and it took about 30 seconds to renew my bond. This has been an easy, convenient, and one of the most affordable companies to work with. Some of the best customer service in the market which is sometimes hard to find these days! Thank you again for an affordable quote which was seamless to renew. Thank you Cryssi!read more

What Surety Bond amount and type do you need?
When shopping for a Surety Bond, know the type of bond and bond amount is important. There exists a large variety of bond types. If you purchase and submit the wrong type of Surety Bond, chances are the Obligee (entity requesting the bond) will deny your submission. We recommend verifying the bond type and bond amount you need with the Obligee to ensure they will accept your Surety Bond.
Here is a list of popular bond types for the state of Washington.
Washington Surety Bond requirements:
If you lost your title before registering your car or bought a vehicle with a missing title, a Bonded Title might be your best solution.
Your first step is to contact your local Washington DMV to ensure your vehicle is eligible for a Bonded Title. The state requires the amount of your bond to be 1.5 times the value of your vehicle. However, this isn’t what your bond costs. Most of our clients pay $100 for their Certificate of Lost Title Bond.
Licensed contractors are required by the Washington State Department of Labor & Industries to have a Surety Bond. Unlike a traditional insurance policy, the Surety Bond is in place to provide security to your clients, not you as the contractor. If you give unethical service or perform shoddy work, your client can make a claim against your bond to recover the financial loss. This leaves you with the responsibility of paying the surety company back in full.
Before you start a new project, you may receive a request to secure a Contract Bond. The most common types of Contract Bonds include Bid Bonds, Maintenance Bonds, Payment Bonds, Performance Bonds and Warranty Bonds.
Let us assist you with your Washington Court Bond! Our team issues Fiduciary Bonds (Guardianship, Probate and Trustee) and Judicial Bonds (Attachment, Indemnity to Sheriff, Injunction and Replevin).
What kind of Fidelity Bond are you needing?
- Business Service / Janitorial Bond: This policy covers your client if an employee steals from them.
- Employee Dishonesty Bond: This type of policy is also known as a “Commercial Crime Fidelity Bond”. You and your business are protected if your employee steals from the business.
- ERISA Bond: The U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) requires administrators of employee benefit and pension plans to have an ERISA Bond. The beneficiaries of the plan are safe from financial loss if the plan funds are mishandled by the administrator.
Washington Mortgage Brokers must meet the Washington State Department of Financial Institutions’ Surety Bond requirement to receive their license. The bond is a financial safeguard for your clients if you perform fraudulently or unethically.
Vehicle dealers selling new and used cars must meet the Washington Department of Revenue’s motor vehicle dealer license requirement of having a $30,000 Surety Bond. This requirement ensures dealers don’t perform unethical business practices. Motorcycle dealers in Washington only need a $5,000 Surety Bond.
Securing a $10,000 Surety Bond is required to become a Notary Public in Washington State. Our WA Notary Bonds start as low as $40 for a 4-year term. Some of our surety partners include a $10,000 E&O insurance policy with the bond.
Need a different bond type?
Getting the right type of bond is simple. Type the kind of bond or keyword related to the bond type you need using our online application. If you have any questions or need assistance, please get in touch with us. We love to help! Email [email protected] or call (866) 722-9239 to speak with our bond experts.
How much does a Washington Surety Bond cost?
Most of our Washington State Surety Bonds start at $100 for a 1-year term. The cost of the bond is determined by the bond amount and type of bond you are needing. Larger bonds mean a bigger risk. So, a higher premium cost is expected for the amount of coverage.
We also take into account credit score to calculate the cost of some bonds. However, we only perform a soft-pull on credit. Your credit score is not adversely affected when a run a credit check. With good credit and approval, you can expect to pay around 1%-5% of the amount of the bond.
Getting a Surety Bond with bad credit
Getting a Surety Bond in Washington State with bad credit is possible. However, if you receive approval for your bond with non-standard credit, the cost of the bond could be as high as 5%-15% of the bond amount you require.
Fortunately, many of our bonds don’t require a pull on your credit. In this scenario, your credit doesn’t affect the cost of your bond.
Just because your credit isn’t good, doesn’t mean you can’t get your Surety Bond. Apply today to get free, no-obligation quotes.
