What it is and who needs it.
What the contractor bond covers
The Village of Northfield requires commercial contractors to register with the village before working there, and conditions that registration on a surety bond running to the Village of Northfield.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Village of Northfield (the obligee). The bond guarantees you'll follow the village's building codes and contractor ordinances; if you violate them and the village or a harmed party suffers a loss, they can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you. If the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We issue the amount the village requires at 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum — no credit check up to $25,000 — and track the term, notifying you 60 and 30 days out.

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 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.
Renew before the expiry date to keep the bond in force: the license, permit or contract it backs expects continuous coverage.
