How does a contractor license bond work?
A contractor license bond protects a contractor’s clients from damages resulting from faulty contractor work. The bond ensures that contractors meet all applicable regulations and codes of the obligee (the City of Muskegon). If the contractor fails to follow the bond agreement in any way, clients can file a claim to receive compensation.
To obtain your contractor bond in Muskegon, you’ll pay a premium, a percentage of the bond amount. ZipBonds can often issue bonds quickly, at a typical rate of $100.
