What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Village of Matteson requires every contractor and subcontractor performing work in the village to file an original $10,000 License and Permit Bond naming the Village as obligee, administered by the Community Development Department's Building Services Division. The bond stands behind a contractor's compliance with village building code and permit requirements.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Matteson (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. The bond runs alongside your contractor registration, which the Village requires to be renewed annually; Matteson also requires proof of liability insurance alongside the bond before registration is complete.

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 $10,000 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 and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with your Matteson contractor registration through the Village's online licensing system. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
