The City of Sachse requires a $2,000 bond from contractors who build sidewalks and approaches in the public right-of-way. Our carrier prices this specific bond at $100 flat — the same price for every contractor, no quote round-trip. The bond issues the moment you pay — no credit check.
















Right-of-way bonds are the simplest thing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That is the application. No credit check.
Small fixed city bonds like this issue right after purchase.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the City of Sachse for your sidewalk/approach permit. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Sachse requires sidewalk and approach contractors to post a $2,000 surety bond with the City before working in the public right-of-way. The bond is a right-of-way protection guarantee: it stands behind your concrete work and your obligation to restore city property to grade and code.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Sachse (the obligee), with the public as the protected party. If a contractor leaves a defective sidewalk or approach, damages adjacent right-of-way, or fails to meet the City's specifications, 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 permit formality, not a risk.
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 $2,000 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.
