What this bond does

This bond supports a masonry contractor's West Lafayette registration and permitted-work obligations. It concerns trade authorization, separate from a customer's construction performance contract.

Who needs it
Masonry, stone masonry and brickwork contractors preparing West Lafayette contractor registration.
Who it protects
The City of West Lafayette is named as obligee. The bond's listed trades and accepted conditions determine the secured work.

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.

List each covered trade

The city names masonry work, stone masonry and brickwork in its contractor requirements. Its guidelines specify $5,000 per subcontractor trade and $25,000 for general contractors.

A subcontractor bond covering multiple trades must name each trade and increase by $5,000 per trade under the city's guidance. Prepare the classification appropriate to your business rather than ordering general contractor security by default.

File the original before permitted work

West Lafayette requires bonds on file before permitted work and says a building permit will not issue until the necessary bonds are in place.

The bond must be an original, signed by the principal, with its corresponding power of attorney. The city's guidelines recognize both fixed-term and continuous forms; use the actual continuation instructions for your document.

Apply for the masonry trade offering

Select Purchase Now to open Propeller in a new tab. Apply with your legal contractor name, each covered masonry trade and the city's required amount.

After issuance, check that City of West Lafayette is the obligee and that the covered trades are written on the bond. Complete the principal signature and submit the original with its power of attorney and contractor registration materials.
