The nature of various jobs a contractor can perform involves entering personal homes. The problem is that many people are wary of letting strangers into their home, and rightfully so with today’s crime rates. So how can you make people feel at ease and prove your professionalism? Surety bonds are a big step in the right direction.
A surety bond acts as a guarantee that a job will be completed as promised. If, for whatever reason, you cannot finish a job, the bond issuer can hire someone to finish work or compensate your client for losses. 
Owning the appropriate bonds shows that you are a responsible business owner who cares about clients and their interests. Many people will seek bonded contractors to work on their projects. In fact, in many cases, certain contractors are required to purchase a bond before they can obtain a business license. This requirement helps weed out the bad seeds, therefore limiting the industry to trustworthy professionals, which further helps clients feel more comfortable.
