Why New Jersey HVACR Contractors Need to Be Bonded
In New Jersey, if you are an HVAC & refrigeration contractor, you must be bonded to become licensed and to operate your business legally. You cannot become licensed without a surety bond in states that require them.
In addition, a surety bond encourages contractors to act ethically and to complete jobs in compliance with local and state rules and regulations. In other words, a surety bond adds credibility to you as a contractor by helping to protect consumers.
For example, if you're unable to fulfill the obligations of a contract with a customer, then that customer can file a claim against you. If their claim is upheld, the bond company (or surety) will pay the customer’s losses, and you will need to repay the surety afterward.
