What the well contractor bond actually covers
Wake County administers well construction and permitting through its Environmental Services / Groundwater program. The well contractor bond 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 Wake 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. We issue the amount Wake County set, at a flat 3% with no credit check, on the bond form the county names.
