What is this bond?

The City of Collinsville Excavation Permit Bond is a financial guarantee required for contractors performing digging or trenching work within the city limits. It guarantees that the contractor will properly restore streets, sidewalks, and public property to their original condition after the excavation is complete. If the contractor causes damage or fails to repair the site, the bond provides funds for the city to fix the public right-of-way.

Who needs it?

Contractors, plumbers, landscapers, and utility workers planning to cut into or dig under public streets, sidewalks, or rights-of-way in Collinsville typically need this bond. The local government generally requires it before issuing an excavation or right-of-way permit. You should always verify your specific bonding and permit requirements with the City of Collinsville prior to beginning any work.

Why is it required?

The City of Collinsville requires this bond as a safeguard for public infrastructure and taxpayer funds. It ensures that right-of-way excavations are conducted safely and that any disrupted public property is adequately repaired. If a contractor abandons a project or leaves roads damaged, the municipality can make a claim on the bond to cover the repair costs.
