About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the excavation bond actually guarantees

When a contractor opens a trench or bores under a Florissant street, the City of Florissant wants the public right-of-way restored to its prior condition. It conditions an excavation permit on a $2,000 surety bond standing behind that restoration.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Florissant (the obligee). If you leave pavement, curb, or surface in the right-of-way unrestored, the city can use the bond to pay for the repairs and recover its costs.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who backfill and patch their cuts treat the bond as a permit formality.

City of Florissant Public Works (excavation permit)The City of Florissant requires a $2,000 surety bond as a condition of an excavation permit to dig in the public right-of-way, administered by the city Public Works department. The bond amount and terms are set by the City of Florissant. Verify current requirements with the city before filing.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the Florissant excavation bond? +
The premium is $275. The bond amount is fixed at $2,000 by the city, and 3% of $2,000 is $60 — below our $275 minimum, so you pay the floor. Same price for everyone.
Do I pay the $2,000? +
No. You pay $275. The $2,000 is the surety's maximum liability to the City of Florissant if a valid claim is made — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
Who requires this bond? +
The City of Florissant requires it as a condition of an excavation permit, so the city has a guarantee that work in its right-of-way is restored properly.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount permit bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term. The bond must stay active for as long as the city requires it on your permit; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available.
