How does a contractor license bond work?

Parties Involved

Contractor license bonds are agreements between the contractor, municipal government (City of Lowell), and a third-party financial institution (surety). The bond agreement protects the public and government from damages that can result from construction projects if a contractor fails to follow local building codes.

Bond Details

The City of Lowell requires a $5,000 bond as part of the contractor licensing process. Generally, contractor licenses and bonds are issued for one-year terms and must be renewed annually before the expiration date – first the bond with the surety, then the license with the municipality.
