Surety Bond Issues
One of the first questions asked is whether a project is “bonded” or whether it requires a bond. There are various types of bonds typically used in construction, payment bonds, performance bonds, completion bonds, and bid bonds, to name a few. In Utah, all public works contracts require contractors to post a payment bond. The payment bond is the government entity’s insurance against the contractor’s inability to pay for the labor, materials, and equipment used in the public works project. Other government entities require a completion bond to ensure funds will be available to complete a project if the contractor is unable to do so.
