About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the contractor license bond actually guarantees

A contractor license bond is a code-compliance guarantee. The Village of Alsip Building Department requires any contractor working within the Village to register before pulling permits, and conditions that registration on a surety bond that backs the contractor's compliance with Village building code and permit conditions.

It is a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Alsip (the obligee), with property owners and the public as the protected parties. If a registered contractor's work violates the building code or harms a property owner and the Village or the owner is not made whole, a claim can reach the bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.

Alsip sets the amount at $10,000, and the registration — and the bond backing it — is renewed every two years. Enter that figure; your premium is priced from a $100 minimum after a quick soft credit check that never affects your score.

How often do I need to renew it?Every two years. The Village of Alsip's contractor registration runs on a two-year cycle, and the bond backing it renews on the same schedule.

What does the bond guarantee?It guarantees your compliance with Village building code and permit conditions while you're registered to work in Alsip. If a violation or a harmed property owner is not made whole, a claim can reach the bond.

Do I pay the full $10,000?No. The bond amount is the Village's coverage limit if a claim is made against you, not your cost. You pay only the premium — 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum.

Is there a credit check?The application includes a credit consent, but it authorizes a soft credit pull only — a soft inquiry that never affects your score. No hard inquiry ever runs on this bond.
