How does a contractor license bond work?
In signing the bond agreement, contractors promise to follow all applicable standards and regulations of the obligee (City of Sidney). If a contractor breaks their agreement, clients can file a claim on the bond for compensation. The surety may cover the cost of valid claims upfront, but contractors are responsible for repaying the surety in full, up to the full bond amount.
ZipBonds can often issue contractor bonds instantly for as low as $100.
Frequently Asked Questions
When is my bond up for renewal?
