Win the Contract. Guarantee the Performance.
Surety bonds guarantee that your business will fulfill its contractual obligations. Whether you need a bid bond, performance bond, or license bond — we help contractors and businesses get bonded quickly and competitively.
No Bond, No Bid — No Business
Surety bonds are required for most public construction contracts and many private projects. Without bonding, you can't bid on government jobs, meet licensing requirements, or satisfy client contracts that require a performance guarantee. A surety bond is a three-party agreement that guarantees your business will fulfill its obligations — protecting the project owner and giving them confidence to hire you.
Unlike insurance, a surety bond doesn't pool risk — it places the ultimate responsibility on you, the contractor. The surety company guarantees your performance to the project owner. If you default, the surety steps in to complete the work or compensate the owner, then seeks repayment from you. That's why sureties evaluate your financials, credit, and track record before issuing a bond.
Whether you're a new contractor getting your first bond or an established builder needing higher bonding capacity, we help Midwest businesses get bonded quickly — with competitive rates from trusted surety companies.

Surety Bonds Through Brawner
Surety bonds come in many forms — each designed for a different obligation. Here are the most common types we help businesses obtain.
Bid Bonds
Guarantees that if you're awarded a contract, you'll sign it and provide the required performance and payment bonds. Required on most public construction bids. Typically free or under $100.
Performance Bonds
Guarantees that you'll complete the construction project according to the contract terms. If you default, the surety will complete the work, hire a replacement, or compensate the project owner.
Payment Bonds
Guarantees that you'll pay all subcontractors, suppliers, and laborers for work completed on the project. Protects the project owner from liens filed by unpaid parties.
License & Permit Bonds
Required by federal, state, or local governments as a condition for obtaining a business license or permit. Common for contractors, auto dealers, mortgage brokers, and many other professions.
Maintenance & Warranty Bonds
Guarantees that the contractor will repair any material or workmanship defects discovered after project completion — typically covering a 12 to 24-month warranty period.
Commercial Surety Bonds
A broad category covering court bonds, fiduciary bonds, utility bonds, fuel tax bonds, and other non-construction obligations required by law or contract for various business operations.
Subdivision & Site Improvement
Required by municipalities to guarantee completion of subdivision improvements — streets, utilities, sidewalks, and drainage — before plat approval or building permits are issued.
Supply Bonds
Guarantees that a supplier will deliver materials, equipment, and supplies as defined in purchase orders and contracts — protecting the buyer from non-delivery or defective materials.
