What this bond does
Prepare the Village's applicable contractor-registration security and executed document upload.
- Who needs it
- Hoffman Estates applicants with the applicable electrical/other-contractor security request, not a blanket assumption that every State-licensed trade has the same exemption.
- Who it protects
- The accepted surety defines the registration obligation and recipient. Liability insurance and workers' compensation proof or the no-employee affidavit are separate; a workers' compensation affidavit is not a bond exemption.

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 every State license create a surety-upload exception?
The actual upload label expressly names State-licensed plumbers. Use the current class requirements instead of expanding that label to all State-regulated trades.
Does a no-employee affidavit replace the bond?
It is the listed workers' compensation documentation alternative, not a surety exemption. Keep the applicable $10,000 item separate.
Can I upload an unsigned bond naming my business?
The Village says it must be signed if a principal is listed. Check the actual legal business and issued execution before submission.
