About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the single-job bond actually covers

Arapahoe County requires a surety bond before it issues a permit to work in the public right-of-way. The single-job bond covers one specific permit, sized to that job — the right choice when you have a single project rather than ongoing county-wide work.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Arapahoe County (the obligee). The bond stands behind your restoration of the right-of-way and your compliance with county standards on that job.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the county, you repay the surety. If you do a lot of permits a year, the blanket bond may be the better value; for one job, this is the simpler option.

Arapahoe County Public Works — right-of-way permitArapahoe County requires a contractor to have a surety bond on file before issuing a permit for construction, removal, repair, or maintenance of utilities and facilities in the public right-of-way. The single-job option bonds one specific permit; the amount and terms are set by Arapahoe County Public Works. Confirm the amount for your permit with the county.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with your permit. Submit the executed bond with your Arapahoe County right-of-way permit application. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the county insists.

What sets the price

The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $100,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, price at the end.

Submit the application with the amount Arapahoe County set for your permit — your exact premium, from $100, appears before you pay.
