Surety bonds serve as a financial safety net, ensuring that suppliers or contractors can fulfill their obligation, especially when they fall short of agreed performance targets. They're often a critical requirement for large-scale projects, providing confidence and security for all parties involved.
At iProtect PH, we help simplify the entire surety process, from making sure your bond aligns with your contract terms to assisting with claims and representing your best interests every step of the way.
A surety bond involves three key players:
The Principal – the contractor or supplier providing the service
The Obligee – the client or project owner who requires the guarantee
The Surety – the insurance provider backing the bond
Let us help you secure the trust and support you need to move forward with confidence.
A Contractor’s License Bond is a type of commercial surety bond designed to protect a contractor’s clients or employees in case of financial loss due to the contractor’s unlawful or unethical actions.
It acts as a safeguard, ensuring that the contractor operates in compliance with state laws and industry regulations. If the contractor fails to meet legal or contractual obligations, affected parties can file a claim against the bond for compensation.
At iProtect PH, we can help you secure the right contractor’s bond so you can build trust, stay compliant, and protect your reputation.

Fire – Under standard fire insurance policies, fire refers to combustion that produces a visible flame. This means that heat alone is not considered a fire unless actual ignition or burning occurs.
Lightning – The second key peril covered by fire insurance is lightning. It refers to the discharge of atmospheric electricity—a natural event. Damage caused by lightning is compensable even if no fire results from the strike.

While it is usually required by lenders when leasing or financing a vehicle, it remains optional if you fully own your car.
Third-party insurance is a type of liability coverage where the insured (first party) purchases protection from an insurance provider (second party) against claims made by another individual or entity (third party). This insurance covers the legal liability of the insured for damages or injuries caused to the third party, even though the first party remains responsible for their own losses.
