About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A sanitary engineering contractor bond is a workmanship and code-compliance guarantee. When you connect to or work on Medina County Sanitary Engineer (MCSE) water and sewer utilities, the county wants a financial backstop that the work meets the MCSE Code of Regulations.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Medina County through its Sanitary Engineering Department (the obligee). All work involving water or sanitary sewer service connections must be permitted by MCSE before it starts; if work fails to meet county standards and is left uncorrected, the county can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay active for the life of your registration. MCSE contractor registration renews on a regular cycle — we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your filing stays continuous.
