In most cases, you are required to send your contractor a notice at least 30 days before you proceed to file a claim. The notice secures your right to claim the contract breached by the contractor.

The next step after sending a preliminary notice is filing the claim. To do this successfully, you need to acquire the necessary forms and fill them out correctly.

It may take some time before the surety bond company attempts to reach out to the contractor and provide a resolution to your dispute.  Contact the surety company regularly to inquire about the progress they have made with the claim.
