About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Tiffin registers the contractors who build, tap, and connect sewer lines in its system, and conditions that registration on a $1,000 surety bond. The bond is a workmanship-and-compliance guarantee: it stands behind your obligation to install and connect sewer work to the city's specifications and to restore any public property you disturb.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Tiffin (the obligee). If a sewer builder leaves work out of spec, damages a city main, or fails to make required repairs, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Builders who follow the city sewer rules and restore their cuts treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
