What it is and who needs it.
What the Bridgeport curb & sidewalk bond covers
The City of Bridgeport controls work on its public curbs and sidewalks. When a contractor constructs, replaces, or repairs a curb or sidewalk, the City conditions the permit on a $20,000 surety bond.
The bond is a workmanship-and-restoration guarantee. It runs to the City of Bridgeport as obligee and stands behind your obligation to build the curb or sidewalk to city specifications and to repair any defect or settlement that follows. If your work fails and the City has to correct it, it can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Contractors who do good curb and sidewalk work treat the bond as a permit formality. The premium for this fixed $20,000 bond is set by our carrier’s rate book at $200; the application collects no credit information.
