Tippecanoe County requires a $5,000 construction maintenance bond guaranteeing that construction or restoration work in the county holds up after it's finished. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price, the same for every contractor.
















County maintenance bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
Small fixed maintenance bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the Tippecanoe County Building Commission. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A Tippecanoe County construction maintenance bond is a workmanship guarantee. The county requires it so that construction or restoration work — often a road cut, drainage, or right-of-way restoration — holds up for the maintenance period after the work is accepted, without sinking, cracking, or failing.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Tippecanoe County Board of Commissioners (the obligee). If the work fails during the maintenance period and you don't repair it, the county can recover its repair costs against the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
The bond runs through the county's maintenance period. We track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your $5,000 filing stays continuous for as long as the county requires it.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information, because this bond does not need it.
