What this bond does

Provide the surety document required for the Village's bonded contractor-registration categories.

Who needs it
Contractors registering for Melrose Park work, including the form's bonded roofing, electrical, HVAC and landscaping categories; the stated plumbing exception applies separately.
Who it protects
The Village of Melrose Park is the stated holder of the original bond. Use its accepted surety form for the precise obligee and conditions; registration security does not replace a project permit.

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.

Use the application linked by the Building Department

The linked application requires $10,000 for roofing, electrical, HVAC and landscaping work as well as its general bond instruction. Plumbers provide their IDPH credential, with no bond or insurance required under that form.

Electrical applicants provide a license showing where they passed the test. The current-linked form gives that specific instruction; do not substitute an older download's broad state-license wording.

Send the original after a faxed copy

Have the legal firm name, work category, job information and accepted Village request ready. Purchase Now opens Propeller in a new tab. Check the issued $10,000 document, Village naming and requested dates before filing.

The Village accepts a fax for registration purposes only; the original must follow. Its contractor registration generally expires one year after issuance, with a January-to-December instruction for landscapers. Those registration schedules do not themselves specify the bond's term. The department also makes general contractors responsible for ensuring subcontractors are licensed.

Questions about this bond

Do plumbers need this bond under the linked form?

The form expressly says plumbers provide their IDPH license with no bond or insurance required under its checklist.

Is a fax enough to complete bond delivery?

The form accepts a fax for registration purposes only and says the original must follow. Arrange that original delivery separately from the provider application.

Does the older Word form establish the bond's current expiration rule?

Use the form linked by the Building Department. Unlike the older Word download, it does not state that the bond must expire no earlier than one year after registration. Match the security dates in the Village's actual request.
