About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the maintenance bond actually guarantees

A maintenance and guarantee bond is a warranty on work you have already finished. When Genesee County accepts a public improvement — a road, a drainage structure, a utility extension — it requires this bond so that if the work fails or develops defects during the guarantee period, the County can have it repaired at no cost to taxpayers.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and Genesee County (the obligee). If your completed work fails to hold up through the guarantee period and you do not correct it, the County can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who build to the County’s specifications treat the bond as a closeout formality, not a risk.
