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.
