I'm bidding a waterproofing job and I need a bond for about a $150k project. I probably have enough assets to get this, but I don't know who to go to. I'm a new company so a bonding company may be hesitant to bond me.

Does anyone know where I could go?

Thanks

I was kind of hoping somebody knew someone who did this since everyone here is a contractor.

Perhaps I could look at the Ads on this page. I'll ask my insurance guy. I have insurance but the problem is that I'm a new company and bonding companies don't want any part of it even though I have plenty of money.

Who is requiring the bond?

 

[catawba]

Insurance companies that issue surety bonds are usually more concerned
with your knowledge , experience and company track record (finishing projects) than they are with how much you have in a bank.
Although having the assets to back up the job could'nt hurt.

What is this constructonomics link you provide in your post? Is this your company?

That's usually because you're a high risk, have bad credit, or both.

uh..if you have "plenty of money" post your own bond.

I NEVER saw an insurance company that wouldn't take your money. It's all about RISK. A bond on 007 might cost more but that's why Loyds of London exists.
