Overview
Alamance County property owners and their families depend on safely constructed wells for clean drinking water — and this bond is what holds well contractors accountable to that standard. Before any well contractor can legally operate in Alamance County, NC, the county health department requires this bond as proof that the contractor will follow all applicable well construction rules and regulations. If a contractor's work results in a contaminated well, an improperly sealed borehole, or a violation of county requirements, the bond provides a financial remedy to the affected party. It is a condition of doing business as a well contractor in Alamance County — not optional, not waivable.
Who Needs This Bond?
Well contractors — anyone who drills, constructs, repairs, or abandons water wells in Alamance County, NC — must carry this bond. If you pull permits through the Alamance County Health Department for well work and charge for that service, this bond applies to you. It covers the licensed contractor of record on the job, not a subcontractor or helper. If you operate without it, you cannot legally register or remain registered as a well contractor in Alamance County.
What is this Bond For?
Protecting the public and the environment from improper well construction is the core purpose of this bond. The Alamance County Health Department is the obligee — the agency that holds the bond and can make a claim if your work violates county well construction standards. Covered failures include faulty casing installation, improper grouting, failure to properly abandon a well, or any other workmanship violation that creates a contamination risk or public health hazard. The bond is a financial guarantee that you will stand behind your work and comply with county requirements.
When is it Required?
Applying for a well contractor registration or permit through the Alamance County Health Department is the moment this bond becomes mandatory. You cannot complete your registration, pull a well construction permit, or begin any regulated well work in Alamance County without first submitting proof that this bond is in force. New contractors need it before their first permitted job. Existing contractors must keep it continuously active or they risk losing their standing with the county.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond is issued specifically for work performed in Alamance County, North Carolina. It satisfies a county-level requirement administered by the Alamance County Health Department — it is not a state license bond and does not authorize work in any other North Carolina county. If you also work in adjacent counties, each jurisdiction may have its own separate bonding requirement.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Alamance County Well Contractor's Bond cover well work I do in other North Carolina counties?
No. This bond is specific to Alamance County and satisfies only the Alamance County Health Department's registration requirement. Work you perform in Chatham, Guilford, Caswell, or any other county is not covered by this bond. If those counties require a well contractor bond, you would need to obtain a separate bond for each applicable jurisdiction.
How does this bond renew and what happens if it lapses while I have active well projects in Alamance County?
Your bond must remain continuously in force throughout any period you are registered and permitted as a well contractor in Alamance County. If the bond lapses, the Alamance County Health Department may suspend your ability to pull new permits or continue active work until a valid bond is reinstated. Do not let the bond expire mid-project — renew before the expiration date to avoid any interruption to your work authorization.

Once your bond is issued through the My Bond App portal, you will receive your bond documents electronically.
