About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the drain layer bond actually guarantees

When a licensed drain layer opens an Enfield street to tap the public sewer, the work happens in the town right-of-way — cutting pavement, connecting the lateral, backfilling, and restoring the trench and pavement. The Town of Enfield conditions the drain layer license on a surety bond so the Town is protected if a connection is left unfinished or the street is not restored properly.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Town of Enfield (the obligee). If a connection or restoration is not completed to town standards, Enfield can recover against the bond to finish or repair the work.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the town, you repay the surety. We have not cited a specific municipal code section for this requirement because it is administered at the licensing-department level; confirm your required amount with the Town, and we will match it.

Town of Enfield — Public Works / Drain Layer LicensingThe Town of Enfield requires this bond as a condition of its drain layer license; the bond amount and terms are set by the Town, typically administered through the Public Works or Water Pollution Control Authority office that issues drain layer licenses.
