Questions about this bond
Do roofing, plumbing and sprinkler contractors need this bond?
The Village's contractor-license page expressly exempts those trades from its surety-bond and insurance-certificate requirements and asks for their state license instead. Check the work you are actually registering before ordering.
Does a current electrical license replace the bond?
The Village lists a current electrical license in addition to the surety bond and other application documents. It does not give electrical contractors the stated roofing, plumbing and sprinkler exception.
How long must the bond stay active?
The Village says it must remain active for the entire license term. Match the requested dates rather than treating the undated provider choice on this page as a confirmed term selection.
