How does a contractor bond work?
A contractor license bond gives clients assurance that they’ll receive sufficient work from contractors they work with. By signing the bond, contractors hold that they’ll work according to the standards and regulations of the obligee (City of Warrensville Heights).
Clients can file a claim for compensation if a contractor fails to comply with any component of the agreement. The surety will initially pay out approved claims, but contractors are responsible for paying back approved claims over a period of time – up to the total bond amount.
You’ll pay a premium, a percentage of the penal sum, to acquire your bond. ZipBonds can often process your bond instantly. Premiums start at just $100.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do I need to renew my bond?

Will I need multiple contractor license bonds?
You will often need just a single bond. However, if your work covers multiple bondable trades, you may need one bond per trade. If you have questions, contact the Building & Housing Department or call ZipBonds.
