What Happens When Someone Claims Your Bond?
Since April 2025, New Jersey has required surety bonds for residential contractors. Many of you rushed to get bonded last spring to meet the deadline.

But here's the reality most contractors don't understand:
When a homeowner, supplier, or employee files a claim against your bond, you could be facing financial disaster. Why? Because surety bonds are NOT insurance.

• The surety company pays the claim
• Then they come after YOU for every penny
• Plus legal fees, investigation costs, everything
• You're personally liable for the full amount
• This can destroy your ability to get bonded again
• One claim can put you out of business

If you rushed to get bonded last year without fully understanding this, you need to be in this room.
