How does a contractor license bond work?

By signing the bond agreement, contractors state that they will abide by all standards and regulations of the obligee (Borough of Franklin Lakes). If a contractor breaks their bond contract, clients can file a claim for damages.

The surety will pay out approved claims upfront, but contractors must ultimately pay back these claims in full, up to the total bond amount.

Frequently Asked Questions

Contractor license bonds often have one-year terms. The renewal date for your bond will be listed on the bond form. You must renew your bond before the expiration date and keep your license up to date to remain in good standing. 

Often, only one bond is necessary. However, there are some cases where multiple bonds (such as a local and state bond) may be required. Ensure you understand your municipality’s requirements before getting bonded and starting work.
