About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Village of Lemont licenses electrical contractors through its Building Department, and conditions that license on a $10,000 surety bond. The bond stands behind a contractor's compliance with village building code and permit requirements on electrical work performed within Lemont's limits.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Lemont (the obligee), with property owners and the village itself as the protected parties. If a licensed electrician's work fails to meet code or leaves the village exposed to a covered claim, the harmed party can recover against the bond.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Lemont does not charge a separate license fee for the electrical trade, but the bond and current liability and workers' compensation insurance must be on file before a license is issued or renewed.

Village of Lemont Building DepartmentThe Village of Lemont Building Department administers contractor licensing, including the $10,000 bond required of electrical contractors before permits are pulled. We could not independently verify a specific municipal code section for this requirement, so we cite the administering department rather than a section number — confirm current terms directly with the Building Department (630-257-1580) before filing.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Village of Lemont electrical contractor bond?The premium is $100 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, the same for every electrical contractor filing it. The $10,000 bond amount is set by the Village, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $10,000?No. You pay $100. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond?Village license bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many contractors finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check?The application collects no credit information, and most applications approve instantly. If a check ever runs, it's a soft pull that won't affect your score.
Do I also need insurance to get licensed?Yes — Lemont's Building Department requires current liability and workers' compensation insurance on file alongside the bond before a contractor license is issued or renewed. The bond alone does not complete the license application.
