About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

This Newington bond is a compliance and restoration guarantee. Whether you're laying drains, excavating, cutting a driveway apron, or setting curb and sidewalk in the public right-of-way, the town wants assurance the work meets its standards and the road is restored.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Newington (the obligee). If your work damages the public way or fails to meet town standards, the town can recover against the bond, up to $10,000.

The bond must stay active while you're registered. Let it lapse and your registration can be suspended — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Town of Newington drain-layer / excavation bond? +
The premium is $300 — a flat 3% of the $10,000 bond amount, the same for every contractor. The $10,000 is set by the town, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $10,000? +
No. You pay $300. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability if the town makes a valid claim — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Does this one bond cover all four work types? +
Yes — Newington's $10,000 bond covers drain-layer, excavation, driveway, and curb & walk work in the right-of-way under a single registration. One bond, one premium.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount municipal bonds like this one don't need one.
Who is the obligee? +
The Town of Newington, Connecticut. The bond is filed with the town in support of your registration and protects the public right-of-way.
