What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Village of Hanover Park requires a contractor to register with the Inspectional Services Division and carry a $10,000 surety bond on file before the village will issue a building permit. That $10,000 amount applies to general, carpentry, concrete, electrical, fence, fire sprinkler, HVAC, and sign contractors — sewer contractors instead post a $20,000 bond.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Hanover Park (the obligee), with the village and harmed property owners as the protected parties. If a contractor's work fails to meet code or leaves covered obligations unpaid, the village or a harmed party can look to the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Hanover Park will not issue a building permit until every contractor performing work on a project is registered and bonded, so subcontractors need their own filing too.
