What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The City of Indianapolis licenses wrecking (demolition) contractors in tiers, and Type C carries the $10,000 bond — the smallest tier, for limited demolition work. The bond guarantees you'll perform demolition according to the City's ordinances, protect adjacent property and the public, and correct work the City finds deficient.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Indianapolis (the obligee), with the public and neighboring owners protected. If a wrecking contractor damages property, leaves a hazard, or violates the City's demolition ordinances, a harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who demolish safely and to code treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
