What this bond does

This combined offering concerns performance of the specified excavation work and the maintenance obligation described in the required bond. The actual form determines the work, conditions and period secured by each part.

Who needs it
The legal principal required to furnish combined excavation security for the Paterson project. Match the request rather than automatically naming whichever contractor happens to be working on site.
Who it protects
The combined undertaking secures the promises owed to its named recipient. It is not liability insurance for the applicant and does not automatically include a payment guarantee to subcontractors.

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.

Keep completion and maintenance instructions together

Have the instructions identifying completion of the excavation work and the trigger for maintenance responsibility. Do not assume that the maintenance period begins on the application date or that work acceptance immediately discharges the whole combined undertaking.

Paterson also has performance-only and maintenance-only offerings. Use this combined designation when it matches the requested form, not simply because a broader title appears to offer more coverage.

Sources

Have these ready

  1. Have the combined performance-and-maintenance request and required form.
  2. Identify the principal, recipient, site and excavation or permit reference.
  3. Gather the work description and any stated maintenance trigger or duration.
  4. Use the requested sum and dates; retain separate execution and delivery instructions for after issuance.

Questions about this bond

Will the performance-only option meet this request?

Do not infer that. Compare both promised stages and the accepted form. The catalog lists the performance-only, maintenance-only and combined undertakings separately.

Is maintenance the same as insuring against accidents?

No. A maintenance promise concerns the duties specified in the undertaking. It does not replace the applicant's liability policy or create unspecified accident coverage.

Where do I begin the combined application?

Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Enter the combined Paterson request and legal-party details. Review and issuance, any required execution, and filing with the recipient are separate from the application and from permission to excavate.
