Protecting your project’s contracts

Construction projects can be complex, often requiring dozens of contractors and vendors to complete them. Construction companies expect a guarantee for the completion of each contractor’s obligations and in some cases may require a surety bond for added financial protection.

The three main surety bonds frequently used in the construction industry are:

• Bid Bonds
• Performance Bonds
• Payment Bonds

Each of these bonds establishes a legal obligation between contractors, owners, and the surety which can be challenging to understand.
