What it is and who needs it.
What the Walkerton contractor bond guarantees
The Town of Walkerton conditions its contractor license on a $5,000 surety bond filed with the Town. The bond is a public-protection guarantee: it backs your compliance with the Town’s building, permit, and right-of-way rules while you work in Walkerton.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Walkerton (the obligee), with the Town and harmed parties as the protected parties. If your work damages public property or violates the contractor ordinance, a claim can be made against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pull permits and restore the work site treat the bond as a license formality, not a risk.
