The purpose of the Portage County contractor bond is to serve as a financial guarantee that contractors will be in compliance with all county regulations, statutes and laws as it relates to their contracting operations. This includes laws for the state of Ohio.

The surety bond holds Portage County harmless for the failure to comply with these rules, particularly when such non-compliance results in some harm or substandard product.

Portage County Contractor Bond: Instant Issue and Bond Term

 

 

 

The Portage County contractor surety bond is an “instant issue” surety bond.

This means that once the application is completed, and the premium is paid, the bond is issued to you immediately!

This also means that there is no underwriting nor a credit check involved in the bond’s purchase!

Once issued, you will need to file the original surety bond, not a copy, with the county office. The bond will be sent to you by the next business day at the latest.

By County statute, the Portage County contractor bond will expire on December 31st of the year in which the bond is issued.
