About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Maumee conditions sidewalk, driveway, and approach work in its right-of-way on a $7,500 surety bond. Because this concrete work sits in the public right-of-way and ties into city infrastructure, the bond is a public-infrastructure guarantee: it stands behind your work meeting the city's construction standards and being restored properly.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Maumee (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If a contractor builds defective sidewalk or driveway, damages the right-of-way, or fails to restore it, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pour to spec and restore the right-of-way treat the bond as a registration formality, and we keep your $7,500 filing continuous with renewal notices 60 and 30 days out.

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 $7,500 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

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 Maumee. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Maumee for your sidewalk and driveway registration or permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $7,500 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
