How does a contractor license bond work?
This bond guarantees that a contractor complies with applicable licensing and permit laws – or reimburses other parties for damages if they don’t. The contractor acts as the principal in the contractual agreement with the obligee (the City of Grovetown) and surety. The contractor is ultimately responsible for paying back the surety for any damages covered.
You will pay a premium to obtain your bond. ZipBonds doesn’t require a credit check for contractor license bond applications. These bonds are easy to underwrite and issued quickly – often for $100.
