How do contractor bonds work?

By posting a license bond, contractors promise to follow the standards and regulations of their obligee (Mentor-on-the-Lake). Clients can file a claim for compensation if a contractor’s work doesn’t meet all criteria of the agreement. The surety may step in to settle the claim upfront, but the contractor will be held responsible for repaying all costs in full.

You will pay a premium to acquire your bond, which is a small percentage of the penal sum. At ZipBonds, contractor bond premiums start at $100.
