About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the Taylor drainlayer bond covers

The City of Taylor licenses drainlayers — contractors who install and connect drains and sewer laterals to the City system — and conditions registration on a $20,000 surety bond. The bond is a workmanship-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your promise to make connections to City specifications and to restore any street or right of way you open.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Taylor (the obligee). If a drainlayer's work is defective or you leave the public way unrestored and don't fix it, the City can recover its costs against the bond up to $20,000.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays the City, you repay the surety. Drainlayers who do clean work and restore the right of way treat the bond as a registration formality.

City of Taylor — drainlayer registrationThe City of Taylor requires this $20,000 bond as a condition of registering as a drainlayer; the amount and terms are set by the City (Department of Public Works / Water & Sewer). We don't cite a specific ordinance number here because the requirement is administered at the registration level — confirm the form on your City registration and we'll issue to match.
