The Road & Sewer Bonds Market

Road and Sewer Bonds account for less than 5% of the surety market, which combined with associated legal agreements and the unique nature of the bond beneficiary (Adopting Party), makes it a very specialist insurance-related product.

The unique nature of these bonds and technical idiosyncrasies often means that general insurers or brokers are not familiar with how to efficiently present a developers’ requirements to the market or secure efficient terms that offer value against the real risk of a bond.

Our Background

RS Bonds specialise solely and exclusively in the procurement of Road and Sewer Bonds for developers. We combine our extensive knowledge with established relationships in the surety market, who have a comprehensive knowledge and track record in Civil Engineering and Housebuilding.

This enables our clients to benefit from our knowledge of the bond and adoption process and our ability to recognise and present consideration to a number of technical considerations not ordinarily recognised or given credence by others, including:

  • Applicant Experience and Management Team
  • Development Program
  • Development Particulars
  • Civil Engineering Designer
  • Civil Engineering Contractor
  • Bond Monitoring and Claim Mitigation
  • Site Completion (Bond Cancellation) Strategy
  • Legal Agreement Particulars
  • Bond Type
  • Bond Beneficiary (Adopting Party)
