The World of Construction Thrives on Trust

The world of construction thrives on trust. From blueprints to finished structures, the entire process relies on the commitment of various parties. But what happens when things don't go according to plan? Enter surety bonds – the unseen guarantor of project completion in the construction industry.


Investing in a surety bond is an investment in project success. It minimizes financial risks, opens doors to new opportunities, and fosters a collaborative environment built on trust. At Cottingham & Butler, our team of experts helps navigate the surety bond process, securing the most competitive rates and customized solutions for your specific construction needs.

Don't Let Statistics Define Your Safety Culture

While the construction industry is vital to our modern world, it also holds it’s inherent safety risks. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, construction fatalities occur at a rate of 9.6 per 100,000 workers – significantly higher than the national average. These statistics translate to real challenges – workers’ compensation claims, project delays, and increased insurance premiums all stem from a weak safety culture.


The good news? A proactive safety approach dramatically reduces these risks. Cottingham & Butler offers comprehensive safety services, including risk assessments and training programs, to empower construction companies to prioritize safety.
