About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The Town of Addison registers contractors who work within town limits and conditions registration on a surety bond. It is a code-compliance and restoration guarantee: that you work to the town's adopted codes and leave public property as you found it.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the Town of Addison (the obligee). If your work violates town code, damages public property, or you abandon a permitted job, the town can recover against the bond.

Because the town sets the figure on your registration, the amount is whatever Addison names (commonly $5,000). Enter that figure and pricing runs from $100 — no credit check up to $5,000, and if the surety pays the town, you repay the surety.

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.

How to file it

File with the Town of Addison. Submit the executed bond with your contractor registration / license application. Wet-ink originals mailed whenever the town insists.

What sets the price

The premium is 0.5% of the bond amount, $100 minimum: the amount the obligee sets moves the price, not your business profile.

No credit check up to $5,000. Above that, the carrier may run a soft pull, which never affects your score.

Where a check runs, it decides approval; the rate is the same for everyone approved.

One application, issued on the spot.

Submit the application with the bond amount the Town of Addison set — the executed bond is generated instantly, ready to file.
