How does a contractor license bond work?
A contractor license bond ensures you comply with relevant licensing and permit laws. If you don’t, and someone suffers damages, they could file a claim against your bond for compensation. If the claim is valid, your surety may initially cover the costs to settle the claim. However, you will be liable for repaying them.
Contractors will pay a premium to obtain a license bond. ZipBonds issues these bonds quickly after application, and applicants can often become bonded for just $100. Contact us today to see if you qualify.
