How does a contractor license bond work?
A contractor license bond guarantees clients that their contractors will fulfill all work obligations. By signing the bond, contractors agree to follow all applicable standards and regulations of the obligee (Village of Ashville).
Clients can file a claim for damages if a contractor breaks any part of the bond agreement. The surety first pays out approved claims, but contractors are ultimately responsible for paying back claims up to the full bond amount.
ZipBonds offers contractor bond premiums starting at just $100 – and we can often process and issue these bonds immediately.
