Wicomico County sewage installer bonds.
$100 flat.
Wicomico County requires its licensed sewage system installers to carry a $5,000 bond as a condition of the installer license. Ours is $100 flat — the flat price our carrier sets for this bond, not a percentage of the amount. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.

What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A Wicomico County sewage installer bond is a workmanship-and-compliance guarantee. When you install septic systems and on-site sewage disposal, the county wants a financial backstop that your work follows county and Maryland Department of the Environment standards — protecting both the homeowner and the public health of the area.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and Wicomico County (the obligee), with harmed property owners as the protected parties. If an installer's defective work violates the county's installation rules, the harmed party can recover against the bond.
The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and the county can suspend your ability to pull permits — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $5,000 filing continuous.
