How does a Marlborough contractor license bond work?
A license bond protects a contractor’s clients from damages resulting from insufficient work. The bond guarantees that contractors meet applicable regulations and codes of the obligee (the Town of Marlborough). If a contractor fails in any way to follow the bond agreement, clients can file a claim for compensation.
You’ll pay a premium (a small percentage of the bond amount) to obtain the bond you need. ZipBonds can issue many contractor license bonds instantly for just $100.
