What is a Construction Performance Bond?
A type of surety bond that guarantees a project will be completed by a contractor according to the contract terms. If the contractor fails to satisfy the agreement for any reason, the bond provides financial protection ot the project owner. Construction performance bonds are required for most large commercial projects, government projects, and other high-value deals.
How Does a Construction Performance Bond Work?
