How does a contractor license bond work?
When obtaining this bond, the principal (contractor) enters into an agreement with the obligee (Prince George’s County) and the surety company. A contractor license bond guarantees the bonded contractor complies with applicable licensing and permit laws. If they don’t, any parties that suffer as a result can file a claim against the bond for compensation. The surety company may initially cover any damages incurred, but the principal must later repay them in full.
