Calvert County licenses contractors and home-improvement work at the local level, and conditions the license on a surety bond. The bond is a consumer-and-public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your compliance with the County licensing rules and the obligations you take on when you do licensed work for County residents.
It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety, and Calvert County (the obligee), with your customers as the protected parties. If you abandon licensed work or violate the licensing rules and a customer is harmed, they can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who finish their work and keep their license in good standing treat the bond as a licensing formality.
