Tony DeMartino

“Tony, I really appreciate you and Joe stepping in to help with my last-minute bid bond request. I know this project was about 3.5 times larger than anything we’ve handled before, so your willingness to work over the weekend to help us meet the bid deadline and secure favorable terms meant a lot. We just found out we’re the apparent low bidder! Thanks again for everything — you definitely have a customer for life.”

“Caitlin and Kaitlynn, I just wanted to take a moment to say how "thankful" and "happy", I am to have you both helping me in my work day. You two, intelligent women make everything better, when the workload seems so hard to navigate. This was one of the busiest bid seasons I have seen in eight years. So please know you both are very much appreciated every day.”

Gina Semonelle

“I began working with Gina Semonelle almost two years ago. I had never been in this field of work before, so requesting any kind of bond was new to me. Gina understood and patiently walked me through the process. Repeatedly. She is often frequently hit with last minute requests and shows nothing but grace and professionalism, no matter how short of a time frame she is given. She has found her calling in her chosen field, and we are all so very blessed to have her as part of our extended team. Thank you, Gina!”

General Contractor, Northeast

“For trust and honesty, there is no better agent.”

Preconstruction Services and General Contractor, Northeast

“Our bonding capacity was stagnating at our prior surety. We needed to expand our single limit and aggregate limit at least 3X. Creative thinking makes the world go round. The prior surety company was too black and white.”

Mechanical Contractor, Mid-Atlantic

“I was referred by another agent to you. The old agent assured me that you would work quickly to get us the best alternative. The previous agent was slow and cumbersome. You are very organized and everything on the service side has worked out great.”

Wrecking and Demolition Contractor, Mid-Atlantic

“You take a different approach. The last bonding agent treated us like he was doing us a favor. You guys were like how can we help you grow this business? The old bonding agent said "be happy with what you got." Your approach was like "hey looks like you've got something good going on here - let's grow."

Remediation, Decontamination & General Construction Contractor, Mid-Atlantic

“I know that I’m not your only bonding client, but you make me feel like I’m your only client. You’re always available and always offering ideas to help me improve and grow. You’ve been a huge part of my success.”
