What it is and who needs it.
What the bond actually guarantees
A siding, roofing & windows contractor license bond is a compliance-and-public-protection guarantee. The Village of South Russell conditions your trade license on it so the village, and residents who hire you, have a financial backstop that you'll follow the village's building and contractor rules.
It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier standing behind you, and the Village of South Russell (the obligee), with residents and the village as the protected parties. If you violate the contractor ordinance or leave damage to public property unpaid, a harmed party can recover against the bond.
It is not insurance for you — if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety. We track the bond and notify you 60 and 30 days before expiration so your $10,000 filing with the Village stays continuous.

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 bond runs to December 31 whatever day you buy; the premium covers the period to that date.
Renewal falls on the statutory date, December 31, in the year your term ends.
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

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.
The application asks for a Social Security number; the form does not say whether a credit check follows.
