What this bond does

This bond supports contractor licensing with the Village of Berkeley. It is part of the village's contractor documentation, distinct from the permit for a particular job.

Who needs it
Contractors preparing Berkeley village licensing documents, subject to the village's stated treatment of state-regulated trades.
Who it protects
The village-required form defines the secured contractor duties and recipient. General liability and employee injury insurance remain separate requirements.

Your bond option

This is the option on record for this bond.

The bond amount describes the limit of the bond obligation, not the price. A listed amount does not establish what the requesting party requires. The premium is what you pay and must be confirmed for the actual option. An E&O limit, where listed, is separate errors and omissions insurance.

Check the village's treatment of your trade

Berkeley requires contractors to hold a current village contractor license. Its guidance gives separate instructions for plumbers and other state-regulated contractors, with a stated exception for roofing.

Prepare the applicable Illinois credential and village classification. Do not assume the same paperwork applies to every state-regulated trade.

Prepare bond and insurance evidence separately

The contractor page lists a $10,000 surety bond, general liability insurance naming the village as additional insured, and workers' compensation as required under Illinois law.

Use the village's bond form and the legal contractor identity used for registration. The bond and your insurance certificates are separate documents in the licensing application.

Apply and coordinate year-end registration

Select Purchase Now to open Propeller in a new tab. Apply with the village's request and your trade details. After issuance, check the document and follow the village's filing instructions.

The village says licenses expire December 31. Review the issued bond's own dates and continuation instructions while preparing the license renewal; the license expiry does not itself establish the provider's bond term.
