After you complete public improvements for the City of Lewisville — streets, water and sewer lines, drainage — the City requires a maintenance bond warrantying the work against defects for a set period (commonly two years). Whatever amount the City set, premiums run 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.
















No underwriting queue for the standard maintenance bond — enter your amount, pay, and file with the City. Here is the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount the City required, the maintenance period, and the effective date — that is the application.
No credit check up to $50,000. Above $50,000, a soft pull may add a short review.
Submit the executed maintenance bond to the City of Lewisville engineering / public works department to close out your project. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the City insists.
A maintenance bond is a warranty guarantee. After you finish public improvements for the City of Lewisville — paving, water, sewer, drainage in a subdivision or capital project — the City accepts the work but requires a bond that the improvements stay sound, free of defective material or workmanship, for the maintenance period.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal / contractor or developer), the surety carrier, and the City of Lewisville (the obligee). If a covered defect surfaces during the maintenance period and you don't fix it, the City can recover the repair cost against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who build to City spec treat the maintenance bond as a project close-out formality. We issue the amount the City set, priced at 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — no credit check up to $50,000.
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 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.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
File with Lewisville public works. Submit the executed maintenance bond to the City of Lewisville engineering / public works department to close out your project. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the City insists.
The premium is 1% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.
No credit check up to $50,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.
Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.
