Frequently Asked Questions

Answers Before You Apply

Can’t find what you’re looking for? Contact us and we’ll walk you through it.

A construction guarantee is a financial assurance that a contractor will fulfil their obligations under a contract — commonly required by the employer or principal before work begins, especially on CIDB-registered or public-sector tenders. If your contract or tender documents call for a performance, payment or retention guarantee, you’ll need one in place before the project can proceed.
A guarantee is a promise of payment if the contractor fails to perform — it protects the employer’s financial interest. Construction insurance, such as Contractors’ All Risk or Public Liability cover, protects against physical loss, damage or third-party claims during the works themselves. Most projects need both, and we can arrange them together.
Typically your company registration documents, CIDB grading certificate, latest financial statements, and the signed contract or letter of award. The exact requirements depend on the size and type of guarantee or cover you need — our team will confirm the full list once we understand your project.
Once we have your complete documentation, most applications are assessed and guarantees or policies issued within a few working days. Larger or more complex contracts may take a little longer to underwrite.
No. We support contractors across our CIDB gradings (8CE, 7GB, 7SB and 1ME) as well as ungraded and private-sector contractors, subcontractors and project owners who need guarantees or insurance outside the public tender environment.
