What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
The Town of Munster — in Lake County near the Illinois line — conditions a contractor registration on a $5,000 surety bond. The bond is a code-compliance and public-protection guarantee: it stands behind your work being done to the Town's building codes and your restoring any damage to Town property.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Munster (the obligee). If a registered contractor violates the Town's building code, abandons permitted work, or damages public infrastructure, the Town or a harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. Contractors who pull proper permits and build to code treat the bond as a registration formality, not a risk.
