Surety Bonds

Licensed contractor who may be required to carry a surety bond

What Is a Surety Bond?

A surety bond is a three-party agreement that guarantees you'll meet a legal, financial, or contractual obligation. Unlike insurance, which protects you, a bond instead protects the person or entity requiring it, like a city, state, or client, by guaranteeing you'll follow the rules or complete the work you promised. As a result, if a claim is made and paid out, you're responsible for repaying the bond company. That's why many licenses, permits, and contracts in Delaware require a surety bond before you can legally operate.
