A subcontractor registering to work in the Village of Minooka files a $5,000 surety bond under Village Code § 3-7-4 — half the $10,000 amount set for general contractors. Ours is $100 flat — the price you see is the checkout price. The bond issues the moment you pay — a soft credit pull at most, never a hard inquiry.
















A Village of Minooka subcontractor bond is about the simplest filing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details and an effective date. That's the application — no financials, no credit section.
Registration bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase. At most, 1–2 business days.
Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the Minooka Building Department alongside your subcontractor license application. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Minooka's Village Code § 3-7-4 sets a lower bond tier for subcontractors registering under their own license — $5,000 instead of $10,000 — reflecting the narrower scope of subcontractor work compared to a general contractor holding the overall permit.
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 registered subcontractor's work causes a loss the licensing requirement is meant to guard against, the Village can draw on the bond up to the $5,000 penal sum.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. If you later register as a general contractor holding your own permits, you'll need to step up to the $10,000 general contractor bond; we re-issue at the higher amount.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this application doesn't collect credit information.
