About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Groves licenses contractors and conditions the license on a $15,000 surety bond. It is a public-protection guarantee that your work meets the City's building and permit requirements and that you restore any public property you affect.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Groves (the obligee). If your work violates City codes or damages public infrastructure, the City — or a harmed party — can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who build to code and keep their license current treat the bond as a routine line on the City checklist.
