What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Village of Lindenhurst conditions most contractor registrations 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 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, mailed or emailed directly to Village Hall.

Claims, renewal, filing, and what sets the price.
If a claim is made
A claim comes from the party the bond protects, the obligee named on the form, when the duty the bond guarantees is not met.
The surety investigates and pays a valid claim, up to the $5,000 bond amount. You then repay the surety: a surety bond is a guarantee of your performance, not insurance for you.
Renewal and term
The premium covers a one-year term from the effective date you choose; a longer term is the same price per year, chosen at checkout.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
How to file it
File with the Village. Your executed bond arrives by email, ready to submit to Village Hall with your contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $5,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
