How does a Walton Hills contractor bond work?
A contractor license bond guarantees that clients receive quality work from their contractors. By signing the bond, contractors ensure that they’ll abide by the standards and regulations of the obligee (Village of Walton Hills). Clients can file a claim against the bond if their contractor breaks the agreement.
The surety may initially pay out valid claims, but contractors are ultimately responsible for paying them back in full – plus interest and fees.
You’ll pay a premium to obtain your bond, which is a percentage of the penal sum (total bond amount). ZipBonds can often process these bonds immediately, and premiums start as low as $100.
