About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Heath registers the contractors who connect ("tap") private service lines into its sanitary sewer mains, and conditions that registration on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a workmanship-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to tap, connect, and backfill according to the city's sewer rules and to restore any public property you disturb.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Heath (the obligee). If a tapper damages a city main, leaves a connection out of spec, or fails to make required repairs, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Tappers who follow the city sewer rules and restore their cuts treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $1,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The bond runs to December 31 whatever day you buy; the premium covers the period to that date.

Renewal falls on the statutory date, December 31, in the year your term ends.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with the City of Heath. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Heath. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $1,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
