Caswell County requires a $5,000 well contractor bond as a condition of constructing wells in the county. Ours is $100 flat — the price our carrier sets for this specific bond, the same for every contractor. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit review of any kind, not even a soft pull.
















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 fields at all, 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 Caswell County well-construction permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
A Caswell 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 Caswell 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.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow the county's well rules treat the bond as a permit formality, not a risk.
These are the actual issuing fields — the application collects no credit information at all.
