About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Village of Lakemoor requires every general contractor and subcontractor to file an original $10,000 surety bond before a building permit will be issued. The bond assures that the contractor's work will be completed in accordance with the building permit and the village's code, and it names the Village of Lakemoor and applicable third-party beneficiaries as obligees.

It's a multi-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the village and its named third-party beneficiaries as obligees — so a harmed property owner covered by the bond, not just the village itself, can potentially look to it. If a contractor's work fails to meet the permit conditions or village code, a claim can be made against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Lakemoor requires the signed original bond to be mailed to Village Hall; we deliver an executed bond you can mail the same day, and a faxed copy is accepted in the meantime.

Village of Lakemoor Building DepartmentThe Village of Lakemoor's Building Department requires every general and subcontractor to file an original $10,000 surety bond, naming the Village of Lakemoor and applicable third-party beneficiaries as obligees, assuring that the contractor's work complies with the building permit and the village's code. A specific municipal code chapter/section number was not independently verifiable at publication; confirm your bond requirement with the Building Department before filing.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Lakemoor contractor license bond?Our rate is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum. The Village of Lakemoor fixes the bond itself at $10,000, so at that amount the $100 minimum applies — your exact price shows at the application before you pay.
What amount should I enter?You don't need to — the Village of Lakemoor's contractor bond is fixed at $10,000, so the amount is already set and locked in on the application.
What does the bond guarantee?It assures Lakemoor and the bond's named third-party beneficiaries that your work will comply with the building permit and village code. If it does not and a covered claim is made, the village or a harmed beneficiary can look to the $10,000 bond — and if the surety pays, you repay the surety.
Where do I file it?Lakemoor requires the signed original mailed to Village Hall — a faxed or emailed copy is accepted to hold your place in the meantime. We deliver an executed original you can mail the same day.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, so most applicants approve instantly. If a check ever runs on this bond, it's a soft pull that won't affect your score.
