What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Wheat Ridge requires a permit to work in its public right-of-way — to cut a street, open a sidewalk, or place utilities — and conditions that permit on a $10,000 bond. The bond is a restoration guarantee: it stands behind your patching, restoring, and stabilizing the right-of-way you disturb, to the City's standards.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Wheat Ridge (the obligee). If a contractor leaves the right-of-way unrestored or damages City infrastructure, the City can recover against the bond to make the repairs.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Keep your restorations clean and the bond is a permit formality. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your $10,000 filing stays continuous.

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 $10,000 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; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
