About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Village of Maywood requires anyone engaging in the business of electrical contractor to register with the Village and file a bond before doing business in the village. An electrical contractor's bond amount is $10,000, deposited with the Director of Finance, with surety approved by the Village Board of Trustees.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Maywood (the obligee), with the village and harmed property owners as the protected parties. The code frames the bond's purpose plainly: to protect the Village from loss or liability caused by the licensed contractor's work.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Maywood contractor licenses renew annually by December 31, alongside the license fee set under § 110.13, so plan your bond renewal to match.

Village of Maywood Building and Code Enforcement DepartmentThe Village of Maywood requires an electrical contractor to register with the Village and file a bond before doing business in the village, deposited with the Director of Finance with surety approved by the Board of Trustees. The Village's electrical code sets its own registration and bond requirements for electrical contractors, and we could not confirm a codified section number matching the $10,000 amount on this page against a live copy of the Maywood municipal code, so confirm current terms with the Building and Code Enforcement Department before filing. The license fee is set separately under § 110.13.
