When it comes to generating leads and finding more projects in the commercial construction industry, particularly in the preconstruction phase, there are many different routes one can choose to navigate.

For building contractors, the requirement to get a contractor bond can seem like yet another expense and an additional obstacle to deal with. However, getting a contractor bond is a license condition in many states, counties, and cities.

Beyond the license requirements in many state and local governments, it is important to understand how bonds work, the types of construction bonds you might encounter, and their advantages and disadvantages.
