About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

Minooka licenses contractors and subcontractors under Village Code Title 3, Chapter 7 (Contractors), with license fees and bond amounts set out at § 3-7-4. A general contractor files a $10,000 bond; a subcontractor working under its own registration files a lower $5,000 bond instead.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Minooka (the obligee), with the Village and harmed property owners as the protected parties. If a licensed general contractor's work causes a loss the licensing requirement is meant to guard against, the Village can draw on the bond up to the $10,000 penal sum.

It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. If your business registers as a subcontractor rather than a general contractor, file the lower $5,000 bond instead of this one; we write both.

Minooka Village Code § 3-7-4 (License Fees and Bonds)Section 3-7-4 of the Minooka Village Code, within Chapter 7 (Contractors) of Title 3 (Business Regulations), sets license fees and bond amounts for contractors registered to work in the Village, including a $10,000 bond for general contractors. Confirm the current fee schedule and any class distinctions with the Building Department before applying.

FAQ

Common questions.

How much is the Minooka general contractor bond?The premium is $100 flat — set by our carrier's rate book for this bond, the same for every general contractor. The $10,000 bond amount is set by Village Code § 3-7-4, 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?Registration 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, so most applicants approve instantly. If a check ever runs on this bond, it's a soft pull that won't affect your score.
What if I'm a subcontractor, not a general contractor?Minooka sets a lower $5,000 bond for subcontractors under § 3-7-4, rather than the $10,000 general contractor amount. Pick our Minooka subcontractor license bond instead if that’s your registration class.
