Surety Bonds in Wisconsin
Contract, license, and permit bonds guaranteeing performance or compliance. Not insurance in the ordinary sense — a bond is a three-party credit instrument.
What is different in Wisconsin
Wisconsin requires uninsured motorist coverage. Ice damming is the defining winter property claim and is frequently misdiagnosed as a roof defect rather than a covered water loss. Hail severity across the southern counties has driven roof schedules into standard use.
