The City of West Lake Hills requires a $50,000 surety bond, in the name of the city, before its inspector will issue a demolition permit. Our price is $250 flat, and no credit check.
















Demolition permit bonds are simple. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application. No credit check.
Bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase.
Your executed bond, in the name of the City of West Lake Hills, arrives by email ready to deliver to the city inspector with your demolition permit application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
The City of West Lake Hills will not issue a demolition permit until the contractor delivers to the city inspector a $50,000 surety bond in the name of the city. The bond holds the city free and harmless from damage or loss from the contractor's acts or neglect, and guarantees the demolition work is completed and remedied as the inspector requires.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of West Lake Hills (the obligee). The bond is held for the benefit of the city and of any person injured or damaged by the contractor's acts, neglect, or failure to repair defective workmanship — so a harmed neighbor can recover against it too.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. At $50,000 the premium is $250 flat, and no credit check.
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 $50,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
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.
File with the city inspector. Your executed bond, in the name of the City of West Lake Hills, arrives by email ready to deliver to the city inspector with your demolition permit application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
The premium is fixed at $250 at the $50,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
