Pricing & timing

What to expect.

Generic pricing

Bid bonds guarantee that a contractor will honor their bid and enter into the contract if awarded. Typical Pricing:. • Small contracts: Commonly around 1–5% of the bid amount. • Larger contracts: Rates generally scale lower as contract size increases. • Bid bonds: Often provided at no additional cost when paired with performance and payment bonds. • Full underwriting required: Credit, financials, experience, and bonding history reviewed. Bid bonds are typically required for public construction projects. The bond amount is usually 5–10% of the bid price. Rates may vary when risk factors are present, but 1–5% represents the most common market range.
