Other Bond Types
A contract bond is a three-party agreement, whereby the Surety (insurance company) guarantees the Obligee (recipient of the service) that the Principal (contractor) will perform in accordance with the terms of the contract, and will pay their subcontractors and suppliers.
Since surety is a credit relationship, applying for a bond is similar to applying for a bank loan. Sufficient time is required to carefully evaluate all aspects of your submission. The more information you can provide us with for your submission, the sooner a decision can be made.
While the smaller contract bonds, typically under $200,000, are often written on the basis of the financial strength of the owners and officers, other bond types and larger contract bonds are financially underwritten. The following information may be needed in order to qualify for a bond.
Resume of Experience and Contractor Questionnaire
The resume of experience is required for all owners, head estimators and foreman.
Business Financial Statements
Required are fiscal year-end financial statements for the last three years, completed by an independent CPA.
Personal Financial Statements
All owners and major stockholders must submit a personal financial statement.
Accounts Receivable
Aging of accounts receivable, concurrent with the most recent fiscal year-end business statement
Bank Information
Evidence of borrowing capability and/or lines of credit is required from your bank.
General Agreement of Indemnity
All owners of the company (sole proprietors, partners, or corporate stockholders) and their spouses must sign as Indemnitor. If the company is a corporation, the President must sign on behalf of the corporation, with the Secretary attesting to the signature. All signatures must be notarized.
Work-On-Hand Schedule
A schedule of all work on hand and percentage of completion is required for all jobs, bonded and unbonded.
References
Letters of reference will be required from your suppliers and previous jobs, if available.
Additional information may be required after initial review.

Although I haven't had any issues to require me to utilize the insurance, I am very pleased with the communication and setup process Sherry walked me through. Honestly, she did all the hard work. Very appreciative for her making the homeowners insurance (and car insurance) process a breeze while I was busy working on buying a home.

I had a great experience working with Dennis throughout the entire insurance process as I had 3 policies up for review. He promptly answered any questions and suggested some great changes. I received a double benefit: better coverage at a significantly lower cost. The whole staff is top notch and handles changes quickly and professionally. I highly recommend McMichael Insurance for all your insurance needs. 5 stars!

The agents at McMichael Insurance are top notch. They took the time to make sure they knew what I needed and provided me with quality, affordable coverage for Medicare, auto, and renter's insurance. And they followed up to make sure I was satisfied. Agents are supportive and caring. I highly recommend that you give them an opportunity to do the same for you.

I would like to recommend McMichael Insurance once again this year with Josh contacting me during the Medicare enrollment period to see if there were any issues with my current Medicare plan and also if I was satisfied with my Supplemental plan and we reviewed the costs and the services provided with the plan and we decided to remain with the same Medicare and the same Supplemental plan. There are not too many insurance companies that reach out and also have a service to provide help with Medicare and associated plans.Keep up the great job and the customer service.I had two great experiences with McMichael Insurance. One, I worked with Josh on Medigap insurance. He spent the time to go through all the plans and explanations on the plus and minus of the pertinent ones. He was very helpful.The second was with Mark regarding an auto and home policy review and a suggestion for a Hagerty policy for my sports car. Great recommendations.Keep up the good work.FrankWe have again had superior customer service during the past year with McMichael Insurance and they always keep us updated with their communications and with their e-mails with "things to consider" with both home and auto insurance.I have always received a quick response to my calls and the staff has always been helpful.Continued success during the year.I had a great experience working with Tammy about some questions that I had regarding adding a young driver to a policy. She responded quickly by phone and we had a great conversation and it was obviously she had a ton of experience and provided all the answers that I needed. She was very personable and it felt like I had known her for years.Another great experience with the agency.5-7-23I can't express how satisfied I have been with McMichael Insurance through the years. I have been a customer of McMichael for many years and have several relatives that are also customers and have been with the agency for as long as I have been.I am always contacted as my insurance is due to renew and we review the new rates and determine if there is a need to review my policy with other potential carriers for possible savings for comparable coverage.Great customer service and great follow-up to any questions or concerns. Keep up the great work.

Michelle is a Godsend! I had spent a couple weeks researching quotes for home and auto insurance. Everything I came across was way more than what I was paying. Michelle called me, and said “baby let me work my magic”, and she did! She found great rates for me. She’s the best agent I’ve ever worked with. I feel like she’s been a real friend, and I’ve only known her for a short period of time. She makes sure every question is answered, she’s professional, she responds immediately, and she will take care of you. I’m confident that you would be pleased with her service too. I’d recommend her to anyone that’s looking for insurance to contact Michelle at this company. Ten stars!

The McMichael Team is always professional and friendly. Dennis has been a great help anytime we have had any questions or concerns about either of our policies. His knowledge, advice and timely response is very much appreciated. Josh was very patient and informative when helping my husband through the daunting task of signing up for Medicare last year. He even touched base with us this year to make sure the plan we chose was still working for us. Thank you!

McMichael insurance is the best I have dealt with in 30 years!And Kathryn is an amazing client manager! She is not only great at her job, but she is the funniest client manager also. If you ever get a chance to deal with her, look out cause she has some one liners that will have you rolling on the floor in stitches! Her humor takes the pain out of dealing with the arduous task of commercial insurance.

Absolute a great insurance agency all around. I have been in the transportation industry since 2008 and have experienced my fair share of decent insurance agencies, but you cannot go wrong when selecting McMichael Insurance. They are extremely knowledgeable, provide outstanding customer service, quick to resolve any last minute issues, and the list truly goes on! I highly recommend and plan to be with the McMichael Insurance organization for the duration of my time in transportation. Give them a call, ask for Kathryn Wolf, she’s my agent, and I promise she will not disappoint! FIVE STARS ALL THE WAY WITHOUT HESITATION!

Recently, McMichael reviewed our insurance needs and proactively moved us to Hanover Insurance as our previous carrier was moving rates upward. The transition was seamless. Dennis was quick to show us that the coverage was the same and the cost would remain in line. The young lady who was assisting Dennis was so professional when I had questions on the premium payments. They take all the worries out of our needs. Thanks again for all your agency does.
