How do contractor license bonds work?
A contractor license bond guarantees that a contractor (the principal in the bond contract) completes work in accordance with state or local laws. This may include adhering to building codes, paying taxes, and fulfilling other contractual obligations. These bonds protect South Bloomfield (the obligee) and a contractor’s clients from potential financial losses. If a client identifies a break in the agreement and files a claim, the surety company will cover the damages to the client. The principal must then reimburse the surety for the amount paid out.
To acquire your surety bond, you do not need to pay the entire bond amount. Instead, you’ll pay a premium, a small percentage of the bond limit. ZipBonds issues contractor license bonds quickly for as little as $100. Apply online today!
