Any person, firm, or corporation holding a license or certificate, granted by any city of this Commonwealth, to engage in or work at the trade of plumbing, house drainage, and water piping, desiring to do plumbing, house drainage, or water piping in a city of the first class shall, without examination, be registered before entering upon said work:  Provided, however, That such person or persons shall, prior to such registration, post a surety bond in the sum of five hundred dollars ($500), in such form and with such surety as is approved by the city solicitor, for use of the parties interested, conditioned to indemnify the city and property owners against loss by reason of the said master plumber, firm, or corporation failing to comply with the acts of Assembly and the rules and regulations of the Department of Health in the performance of work done by such master plumber, firm, or corporation, and pay the sum of fifteen dollars, which sum shall be paid into the city treasury:  And provided further, That such registration shall be restricted and limited to such plumbing, repair, drainage work, or water piping as he, they, or it shall have contracted for at the time of registry.  On the completion of such contract or contracts, the registration of such person, firm, or corporation shall be null and void, and no further permit shall be issued to such person, firm, or corporation until he, they or it shall have first registered his, their, or its name or names and addresses, as hereinbefore provided.
