Contract surety in Illinois. Illinois public works require payment and performance bonds under the Public Construction Bond Act, which reads payment protection into public bonds by statute.
Bid bonds in Illinois. Bid bonds (commonly 5–10% of the bid) are standard on Illinois public work, with IDOT a major obligee. Awarded contractors furnish payment and performance bonds before the contract is executed.
Subdivision & site improvements. Subdivision improvements are bonded to municipalities and counties under local subdivision ordinances and the Plat Act, commonly via completion and maintenance bonds.
Contractor licensing. Illinois licenses some trades (e.g., roofing, plumbing) statewide and many contractors at the municipal level, each with its own bonding.
