What it is and who needs it.
What the demolition bond actually covers
The City of Shelby registers demolition contractors and conditions demolition permits on a surety bond. The bond is a guarantee to the city that you’ll demolish safely, cap utilities, clear and grade the site, and otherwise follow the city’s demolition requirements and code.
If a contractor leaves a demolition site unsafe or unrestored — open foundations, debris, uncapped utilities, damaged right of way — the City of Shelby can recover against the bond to make it right. The amount is set by the city for the work involved.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who demolish cleanly and restore the site treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk. We issue the amount the city set; pricing starts from $100, and the application collects no credit information.
