The Village of Norridge sets a dedicated $25,000 surety bond for contractors registering specifically in the concrete or roofing trade — a higher amount than the Village's general contractor filing. Ours is $125 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 trade-specific contractor bond is about the simplest filing in surety. Here's the entire process:
Business details, your trade type, 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 Norridge Village Hall alongside your contractor registration. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
Norridge conditions registration for concrete and roofing contractors on a $25,000 surety bond — separate from, and larger than, the Village's registration bond for general contractors. Applicants specify which of the two trades — concrete or roofing — their registration covers.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Norridge (the obligee), with property owners and the Village itself as the protected parties. If a bonded contractor's concrete or roofing work causes damage the Village's licensing requirement is meant to guard against, a harmed party can recover against the bond up to the $25,000 penal sum.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The carrier's own filing for this bond notes a statutory calendar-year renewal, regardless of the effective date you pick, so build that date into your compliance calendar rather than assuming a one-year-from-purchase cycle.
These are the actual issuing fields — no credit section, because this application doesn't collect credit information.
