About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

A City of Tyler sidewalk, curb, and driveway bond is a right-of-way protection guarantee. It stands behind your promise to build and repair sidewalks, curbs, and driveway approaches in line with the City of Tyler's construction standards, and to leave the public right-of-way in good condition.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Tyler (the obligee), with the city and its residents as the protected parties. If your work damages city infrastructure or fails to meet the city's standards and must be corrected, a claim can be made against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We track the term and send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out so your Tyler registration stays backed.
