About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Oklahoma City requires sidewalk contractors to be licensed and bonded before constructing or repairing sidewalks in the public right-of-way. The $2,000 bond is a workmanship and right-of-way guarantee: it stands behind your compliance with the city's construction standards and your restoration of public property.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Oklahoma City (the obligee). If a contractor leaves defective work in the right-of-way or damages public infrastructure and fails to repair it, the city can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We keep the $2,000 filing continuous and notify you 60 and 30 days before expiration.

After you buy

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.

If a claim is made

A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.

The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $2,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.

Renewal and term

The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.

Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.

How to file it

File with the City. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the City of Oklahoma City for your sidewalk contractor license. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $2,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.

No credit check.
