How the SC Residential Specialty Contractor Bond Works
This surety bond protects homeowners and the state by holding residential specialty contractors accountable to South Carolina licensing laws. It guarantees that a licensed HVAC, plumbing or electrical contractor will perform work honestly, meet code requirements and honor the terms of each residential contract. Applicants for a Columbia residential specialty contractor bond, for example, pledge to operate lawfully before beginning regulated work.
The bond involves three parties:
- Principal: The licensed residential specialty contractor
- Obligee: South Carolina Residential Builders Commission
- Surety: Bonding company
A claim against a bond may be filed when a Charleston residential specialty contractor violates licensing laws, breaches a contract or causes financial harm to a homeowner. The surety initially pays valid claims, but the principal is ultimately responsible for reimbursing the surety in full.
