IT’S HOW WE BECAME AMERICA’S #1 PROVIDER OF SURETY BONDS
Throughout the years, Nielson, Hoover & Company has developed a deep understanding of the construction industry. This knowledge allows us to provide superior services and comprehensive solutions to minimize the risks inherent of the construction industry. NHC specializes in surety bonds, bid bonds, performance bonds, payment bonds, and maintenance bonds. We are also experts in commercial bonds, judicial bonds, license & permit bonds, fidelity bonds, payment & performance bonds, public official bonds, and subdivision bonds. We have the capacity and experience it takes to support the largest national contractors and the hometown knowledge and personal service to ensure mid to small size contractors receive the same attention to detail.
NHC’s strength comes from the uncanny ability to solve bonding problems that other agencies can’t. We pride ourselves on the solid relationships we’ve helped build between the client and surety company. Our surety specialists have extensive experience and the expertise to help you overcome the most challenging surety problems. NHC has trusted relationships with the nation’s leading surety providers as well as the movers and shakers in the construction industry. So, whether you’re looking for more capacity, a way to improve your financial profile or even ideas on how to build your business, we can help.
The reason more and more companies look up to us is because we continually look after them by delivering the best surety options, period. In fact, we are the largest privately owned surety agency in the South East. We guarantee that no other agency, nationwide, will provide you with better service, more negotiating power or better terms.

NHC And Acrisure:
A Powerful Partnership
It’s rare when truly vast insurance capabilities are provided with a local and personal touch. This, however, is precisely what businesses can expect from Nielson Hoover as a part of the Acrisure family of companies.
Acrisure is a top 10 global insurance broker and fintech services provider using groundbreaking technologies to stake its claim as the fastest-growing broker in history. Driven by advancements in rich data and artificial intelligence, the company is transforming the insurance and financial services landscapes and recording record revenues.
At the same time, core to Acrisure’s success is a deep belief in giving full autonomy to its family of companies. These are the businesses that change the game at the customer level. These are the professionals who build lasting and trusted relationships. These are the experts customers turn to for answers.
At NHC, we are proud to be part of Acrisure. Namely, because we’re now able to provide our customers with even greater negotiating power, global resources, and stronger surety options, all while continuing our history of personal service.
