What is this Bond For?

A claim against the bond can compensate an affected party up to the bond's penal sum when a valid complaint is established. This is a contractor license bond — its purpose is not to guarantee project completion like a performance bond, but to back your compliance with county licensing rules. It is the county's mechanism for holding licensed contractors accountable.
