What this bond does
The bond follows the homeowner-improvement permit undertaking described in the required Scranton document. The request defines the improvement and any completion or restoration promise; the title alone does not make every homeowner project subject to this security.
- Who needs it
- The legal principal required by the local permit-security request. Confirm whether that is the homeowner or another party instead of automatically naming a hired contractor because the work is an improvement.
- Who it protects
- The named recipient receives security for the written permit promise. It is not homeowners or contractor liability insurance and does not automatically guarantee every obligation under a private home-improvement contract.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.
