<p><em><strong>Contractors Bond</strong></em> act as a guarantee to the client from the General Contractor that the project will be finished up to expectations.&nbsp; If the project is not finished up to expectations of the client the Contractor Bond will off set the financial cost the client has incurred to finish or fix the project.</p>
<p>Private companies are now expecting General Contractors to have a Contractor Bond in order to do business with them or even bid on the project.&nbsp; All government contract work requires that Contractors meet certain bonding requirements.</p>
<p>A Contractor Bond is the assurance to the client that the project will be done and all vendors will be paid without any financial loss to the client.&nbsp; Having a Contractors Bond shows clients that you are financially able to obtain the bond and also you are looking out for their best interest.</p>
<h2>Types of Contractors Bond</h2>
<p><strong>Bid Bonds</strong></p>
<p>Bid bonds are Contractors Bond used as a security for bids submitted on a contract proposal.&nbsp; In larger developments bid bonds are required for all bids or the bids will be rejected.&nbsp; The bid bond gives the client the confidence that the Contractors stand behind their work.&nbsp; With a bid bond if the lowest bid Contractor is given the project and backs out, the client will receive the financial difference between the lowest bid and the next lowest bid.</p>
<p><strong>Performance Bonds</strong></p>
<p>Performance Bonds ensure that the Contractor will complete the project with quality work.&nbsp; In the event that the Contractor does not complete the project up to expectations, the Performance Bond prevents financial loss for the client.</p>
<p><strong>Payment Bonds</strong></p>
<p>Payment bonds makes sure that laborers, suppliers, and sub contractors get paid in the event of the contractor defaulting.&nbsp; Payment bonds are required in projects over $30,000 with the Federal Government and must be 100% of the contract value.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Roofers often have a very risky job, they work from heights that other contractors don&rsquo;t have to deal with.&nbsp; Since the risk is so high Roofers should have the proper insurance coverage in case something happens.</p>
<p><strong><span style="font-size:16px;">Important Roofers Insurance Coverage:<br />
	</span></strong></p>
<p><strong>Workers Compensation</strong> is the number 1 insurance roofers should have to protect their company against workplace accidents.&nbsp; Workers Compensation&nbsp; pays employee benefits if an accident occurs on the job.&nbsp; Since roofing is a high risk job there can be a lot of accidents that can happen on a work site.</p>
<p>Workers Compensation Insurance will cover roofers from a small accident, like a cut finger or burn on the hand from hot tar.&nbsp; It will also cover a major accident with large number of medical bills like falling off the roof and doing serious damage.</p>
<p>Workers Compensation Insurance benefits will cover an employees medical benefits, weekly wages, and rehabilitation cost to get them back to work.&nbsp; Coverage is required in most states, but it is a good idea to have Workers Comp coverage even if you are not required.&nbsp; If an employee is injured on the job and your company does not have Workers Comp Insurance, the company is still liable to pay for the required benefits.</p>
<p><strong>Roofers General Liability Insurance</strong> is another part of your contractors insurance solutions.&nbsp; General Liability insurance covers your company against litigation if bodily injury, property damage, or personal injury happens to a third party while working on the job.</p>
<p>For example if your employees are working on top of a roof and they kick the hot tar bucket over the edge and lands on someone that doesn&rsquo;t work for you.&nbsp; Hot tar is going to cause significant bodily injury to someone.&nbsp; That person has the right to sue your company for medical damages and other costs.</p>
<p>General liability Insurance pays for any costs associated with a lawsuit, medical bills and litigation costs.&nbsp; You know in this world of lawsuits, the cost can add up quick and if you don&rsquo;t have proper insurance that cost is going to fall on you or your company.</p>
<p>Roofers liability insurance will cover financial losses which may occur due to property damage and injury. It also covers the legal expenses that are incurred.&nbsp; This general liability insurance policy has been designed to protect the worker as well as the business or the company. It is really very important to make sure that the roofer has the liability coverage.</p>
<p>Protecting your roofing company is important to both you an your employees, many people depend on the operation of your company.&nbsp; You want to make sure that you protect your company from accidents that may occur during your day to day operations.&nbsp; Always be prepared for the unexpected.</p>
