What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
North Riverside requires every contractor to register with the Village before pulling permits, but it adds an extra condition for two specific trades: a plumber or electrician must also carry a $10,000 surety bond and a copy of their current state trade license, alongside the standard contractor-registration certificate of insurance naming the Village as additional insured.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of North Riverside (the obligee), with property owners and the Village itself as the protected parties. If a bonded plumber's or electrician's work causes covered damage, a harmed party can recover against 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. Village contractor registration is renewed on a calendar-year basis, so track your registration alongside your bond term.

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
