What this bond does
Prepare the license-related surety requested by Burr Ridge for a contractor or subcontractor subject to that requirement.
- Who needs it
- Burr Ridge contractor registrants or license applicants in the Village's surety-required category, not automatically every exempt credential holder.
- Who it protects
- The Village says the surety must name it as Bond Holder/Indemnitee and protect against damages to public ways, the Village and persons. The actual accepted instrument defines those conditions; liability insurance is listed separately.

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.

Questions about this bond
Does the General Contractor bond automatically cover every sub?
The Village says a General with subcontractors must specify those covered. Ask staff how the accepted coverage arrangement fits each contractor's registration instead of assuming blanket coverage.
Do the listed exempt contractors need $10,000 surety?
The licensing page's exempt row says no surety requirement and supplies credential instructions. Have staff verify the applicable plumbing or tested-municipal electrician credentials for your case.
Is this the cash bond released after final inspection?
No equivalence is established. The Village describes permit cash deposits and release inspections separately from contractor-license surety; follow the actual request for each.
