About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Amarillo conditions demolition contractor registration on a $20,000 surety bond. The bond is a public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your compliance with the City’s demolition and building rules — safe site work, proper permits, and restoration of City property such as streets, sidewalks, and utilities disturbed during demolition.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the City of Amarillo (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If a contractor damages City property or violates the demolition ordinance and the City is harmed, it can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who follow the City’s rules treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.

City of Amarillo — Demolition contractor registrationThe City of Amarillo requires this $20,000 bond as a condition of registering as a demolition contractor. The bond amount is named by the City; its terms are set by the City of Amarillo’s Building Safety / permitting department. Confirm registration specifics with the City — we do not cite an ordinance number we cannot verify.

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 $20,000 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 of Amarillo. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with your demolition contractor registration at the City of Amarillo. Wet-ink original mailed on request.

What sets the price

The premium is fixed at $100 at the $20,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
