Alamance County requires a $5,000 well contractor bond as a condition of constructing wells in the county. Ours is $275 flat — the minimum premium, since 3% of $5,000 lands below it. This bond renews on a statutory date (June 30), and the application is five minutes.
















Well bonds like this are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
Fixed-amount bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your Alamance County well-construction permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$5,000 bond × 3% = $150, below the $275 minimum, so the price is $275 per year of term. This bond renews on the statutory June 30 date.
An Alamance County well contractor bond is a compliance guarantee to the county. It stands behind your agreement to construct and abandon wells in keeping with the county's well rules and North Carolina well-construction standards.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Alamance County (the obligee). If a well is improperly constructed or a required abandonment is not done, the county or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
This bond renews on a statutory date. Alamance County ties its well-contractor bonds to a June 30 renewal cycle — we track that date and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your filing stays continuous.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
