How does a Sherwood contractor license bond work?
This surety bond protects the City of Sherwood (obligee) against financial losses due to failure on the contractor’s (principal’s) part. If the contractor fails to follow all state and local laws, it could result in poor financial decisions, physical damages, or unethical business practices that lead to financial loss for the obligee.
The surety issues the bond, which guarantees the contractor’s work performance. If someone files a valid claim on the bond, the surety may initially cover the costs to settle it. Later, however, the contractor must pay back the surety in full.
You will pay an annual premium to obtain your bond, which usually is $100 per year. Check out our page on contractor license bonds in Arkansas for more information.
