The Village of Silverton requires a $1,000 bond to register as a cement contractor — sidewalks, curbs, drives, and flatwork. At 3% that is $30, but our minimum premium is $275 flat, the same for every contractor. The application is five minutes.
















Registration bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit check section, no follow-up scavenger hunt.
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 arrives by email, ready to file with your Silverton cement contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$1,000 bond × 3% = $30, but our minimum premium is $275 — so $275 per term. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
The Village of Silverton registers cement contractors — those who pour sidewalks, curbs, gutters, aprons, and driveways that tie into the public way — and conditions that registration on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a public-property guarantee: it backs your promise to do flatwork to the Village's standards and to restore any public concrete you disturb.
It is a three-party arrangement — you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Silverton (the obligee), with the Village and its residents protected. If a registered contractor pours defective public sidewalk or damages the right-of-way, the Village can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who do clean flatwork treat the $1,000 bond as a registration formality.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
