How do contractor bonds work?

Contractor license bonds ensure that contractors meet all applicable regulations and codes of their obligee (City of Newburgh). The bond is a safeguard for clients. 

The contractor acts as the principal in the bond contract. The bond guarantees a client compensation if the contractor breaks licensing and permit laws that result in damages. The surety may cover any costs to settle a bond claim upfront, but the contractor is ultimately responsible for paying back the surety over time.

Contractors don’t need to pay the full bond amount to acquire their bond. They will instead pay a premium, a small percentage of the bond amount. ZipBonds can issue these bonds quickly for just $100.
