The City of Bristol controls work in its public right-of-way, including curbs, sidewalks, and driveway aprons where they meet a city street. When a contractor constructs or repairs any of those, the City conditions the permit on a surety bond.
The bond is a workmanship-and-restoration guarantee. It runs to the City of Bristol as obligee and stands behind your obligation to build the curb, sidewalk, or apron to city specifications and to restore the right-of-way. If your work fails or you leave the area damaged, the City can recover its repair cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. We issue the amount Bristol set, at a flat 3% with no credit check.
Submit the application with the bond amount on your Bristol permit — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
