Construction Bonds

A contractor’s bond program is a critical component of his business.  Kinney Pike specializes in planning, facilitating and optimizing the surety bond relationship and personalized construction bonds.  We work closely with our clients to understand their short and long-term business plans, and develop a program exclusively for their needs.

A Construction Surety bond is a written agreement where one party, the surety, obligates itself to a second party, the obligee, to answer for the default of a third party, the principal. There are two categories of surety bonds:

  • Contract Surety Bonds provide financial security and construction assurance on building and construction projects by assuring the project owner (obligee) that the contractor (principal) will perform the work and pay certain subcontractors, laborers, and material suppliers.
  • Commercial Surety Bonds guarantee performance by the principal of the obligation or undertaking described in the bond.
