The purpose of the Brooklyn Heights Contractor Bond is to have an avenue for compensation when a contractor acts outside of the registration guidelines and applicable Building and Housing Ordinances. Damages that come from the contractor’s lack of skill, negligence, or even accidental harm can be covered by claims on the bond. 

Typically, contractors receive a notice when their work is not satisfactory to the terms of the license or contract, meaning they have a chance to make any corrections as needed. If the contractor fails to or refuses to do so, that’s when a claim would be filed to cover the cost of labor and materials to complete said job.
