When work in Hoover disturbs a city roadway or right-of-way — cutting pavement for a utility tie-in, building a driveway approach, or doing roadwork — the City of Hoover requires a bond before issuing the permit.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Hoover (the obligee). The bond guarantees you restore the roadway and right-of-way to the city’s standard and follow its rules for working in the public way. If you leave damage the city has to repair, Hoover can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the city, you repay the surety. The amount is set by the City of Hoover from your restoration estimate; we issue it at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount the City of Hoover set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
