The City of Homewood requires a $10,000 bond from contractors who pave or excavate in city streets and right-of-way. Ours is $300 flat — 3% of the bond amount, the same for every contractor. Five minutes to apply, and this bond has no credit check.
















Permit bonds like this are the simplest thing in surety. Here’s the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That’s the application — no financials and no credit check section.
Permit bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your Homewood paving or excavating permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$10,000 bond × 3% = $300, one-time per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
When a contractor cuts, paves, or excavates in a city street or right-of-way in Homewood — for a utility tie-in, a driveway approach, or roadwork — the City of Homewood requires a $10,000 bond before issuing the permit.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Homewood (the obligee). The bond guarantees you restore the pavement and right-of-way to the city’s standard and follow its excavation rules. If you leave damage the city has to fix, Homewood can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. Contractors who patch and restore properly treat the bond as a permit formality. The amount is fixed at $10,000; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn’t have one.
