What it is and who needs it.
What the curb, sidewalk & driveway bond covers
The consolidated City of Indianapolis and Marion County license contractors who build or replace curbs, sidewalks, and driveway approaches in the public way — through the Department of Business and Neighborhood Services. To be a listed contractor for this work and pull the required permits, you register with the City and post a surety bond.
The bond is a workmanship and right-of-way protection guarantee: curbs, sidewalks, and driveway approaches sit in or next to the public way, so the City wants assurance the work meets standards and the public way is properly restored. If you violate the City-County rules or leave defective work, the City (the obligee) and harmed parties can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The City-County Code commonly sets a $10,000 contractor bond, but confirm the amount your specific license requires; enter that figure and we issue at a flat 3% with no credit check.
