The City of St. Marys requires concrete contractors to file a $2,000 bond to register and pour concrete — driveways, sidewalks, and approaches — in the city. At 3% the math lands below our floor, so it’s $275 flat, and license bonds like this are the fastest thing we issue.
















License 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.
License 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 concrete contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
$2,000 bond × 3% = $60, which rounds up to our $275 minimum. Fixed amount, fixed price, multi-year if you want it.
The City of St. Marys registers concrete contractors who pour driveways, sidewalks, curbs, and approaches that connect to the public right of way. The registration bond is a guarantee to the city that you’ll work to municipal standards and restore the right of way you disturb.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of St. Marys (the obligee). If a contractor leaves defective concrete in the right of way or violates the city’s contractor requirements, the city can recover against the $2,000 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 site treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit check section, because this bond doesn't have one.
