How does a contractor license bond work?
A contractor license bond protects a contractor’s clients from damages due to faulty work. The bond ensures that contractors meet all applicable regulations and codes of the obligee (the City of Walker). If a contractor breaks the bond contract, any party that suffers damages can file a claim for compensation.
To obtain your bond in Walker, you’ll pay a small percentage of the full bond amount (called a bond premium). Contractor license bonds are simple to underwrite and don’t require pulling credit. Many contractors can get them for just $100.
