About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Village of Lindenhurst conditions contractor registration on a $5,000 surety bond made out to the Village. The bond stands behind a contractor's compliance with village permit and building-code requirements on work performed within Lindenhurst's limits.

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

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Bonds are filed for a one-year term as standard; plumbers are the only trade the Village exempts from this requirement, since they file their state plumbing license instead.

Village of Lindenhurst Building & EngineeringThe Village of Lindenhurst's Building & Engineering division administers contractor registration, including the $5,000 license-and-permit bond required of most 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 Village before filing.
