What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Village of Willow Springs licenses contractors before they can pull building permits inside the Village, and conditions that license on a $10,000 surety bond filed with the Willow Springs Building Department. The bond stands behind a licensed contractor's compliance with the Village's building and licensing requirements on jobs performed in Willow Springs.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Willow Springs (the obligee), with property owners and the Village itself as the protected parties. If a contractor's licensed work causes covered damage or a Village-code violation the ordinance reaches, the harmed party can recover against the bond up to its $10,000 limit.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. The bond has to stay on file for the life of your Willow Springs contractor license, so confirm the exact filing requirements and renewal cadence with the Building Department when you apply.

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
File with the Village. Your executed bond and power of attorney arrive by email, ready to file with the Willow Springs Building Department alongside your contractor license application or renewal. Wet-ink original mailed on request.
What sets the price
The premium is fixed at $100 at the $10,000 amount for every applicant: the carrier’s rate book prices this bond by the form, not by your credit or your business profile.
