What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Thornton conditions certain contractor and construction permits on a surety bond. The bond is a performance and compliance guarantee — it stands behind your work being done to the City's codes and conditions, and behind any City property you touch being restored.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Thornton (the obligee). If permitted work is left incomplete, fails inspection, or damages City property, the City can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the City set, pricing from $100, on the form the City names.
