What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
Hendricks County, Indiana registers contractors and conditions that registration on a $20,000 surety bond. The bond guarantees you'll perform work according to the County's building and licensing ordinances and correct work the County finds deficient.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and Hendricks County (the obligee), with the public protected. If a contractor violates the County's contractor ordinances or abandons permitted work, the County or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pull proper permits and finish their work treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
