What this bond does

Provide the security requested for an accepted contractor's Citizens water service work.

Who needs it
Contractors matching the utility's actual water-service request, rather than a general municipal contractor registration or another utility's requirements.
Who it protects
Use Citizens' accepted form and recipient wording for its filed contractor security. The utility's stated bond requirement is separate from liability insurance, a project owner's performance/payment security and approval of the water connection itself.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Match the water service process and utility request

The utility's guide covers new connections, irrigation, service upgrades/replacement and fire lines. It asks customers to select a licensed contractor bonded with Citizens for the service-line installation, with $25,000 on file.

A general Indianapolis contractor document is not automatically that utility filing. Use the accepted Citizens form and actual legal principal/recipient. The water guide does not establish the same sum for sewer or natural-gas work or every interior plumbing repair.

Keep the bond, permit and connection steps separate

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. After issuance, check the contractor, accepted utility form/wording, $25,000, required dates and execution and complete the utility's actual filing instructions.

The contractor separately applies for the water service permit. After approval and construction, the contractor requests the utility's inspection or connection. Buying or filing the bond does not establish water availability, approve the application, authorize connection or complete an inspection.

Who applies for the water service permit?

The utility's guide directs the approved licensed and bonded contractor to submit the water service application.

Does the water requirement establish the same bond for sewer or gas?

No. Those are separate service processes. The cited requirement concerns water service-line work.
