The City of Mesquite requires a $2,000 bond to construct sidewalks, curbs, gutters and driveway approaches in the public right-of-way. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price — and the application collects no credit information.
















Right-of-way flatwork bonds are about the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no credit fields, no credit section.
Small fixed-amount bonds like this issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to file with the City of Mesquite for your right-of-way or flatwork permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
The City of Mesquite conditions work in the public right-of-way — sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and driveway approaches — on a $2,000 surety bond. It is a public-infrastructure guarantee that your concrete flatwork meets the City's standards and that you restore the right-of-way properly.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Mesquite (the obligee). If your flatwork is defective or you damage adjacent public improvements, the City can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pour to spec and restore the right-of-way treat the bond as a routine permit formality.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this bond's application doesn't collect credit information.
