What is the difference between a performance bond and a payment bond?

What will be an ideal response?


A performance bond backstops the prime contractor’s obligation to build the
project in conformity with the contract requirements. If the owner declares
the contractor in default, the surety will either pay the owner the amount of
the bond or the surety will complete the project itself. A payment bond
backstops the prime contractor’s obligation to pay the subcontractors. The
surety will pay the subcontractors to ensure they fulfill their contract
obligations and do not file mechanics’ liens against the owner’s property.
