Contractors working on the sewer system in the City of Oregon, Ohio file a $4,000 sewer (restoration) bond with the city. Because 3% of $4,000 is below our floor, the premium is our $275 minimum — flat, no credit check.
















City registration bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here is the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. No financials, no credit-check section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
Small fixed-amount registration 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 registration or permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$4,000 bond × 3% = $120, below the $275 minimum, so the premium is $275 per term. Fixed amount, flat price.
A sewer tapper bond is a restoration guarantee. When you cut into the City of Oregon sewer system or the street to make a connection, the city wants a financial backstop that you will restore the pavement and infrastructure to standard.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Oregon (the obligee). If restoration is left undone or substandard, the city can recover against the bond to cover the repair.
The bond must stay active while your registration is in effect. We track the term and notify you 60 and 30 days out so your city filing never lapses between jobs.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit-check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
