Frequently Asked Questions
Does this Rock Island County bond also satisfy my Illinois state contractor license requirement?
No. This is a county-level bond issued specifically for Rock Island County's local permitting and contractor registration process. It is entirely separate from any bonding requirement tied to an Illinois state contractor license. If your trade or license category requires a state bond, you will need to obtain that separately — this bond only satisfies Rock Island County's local requirement.
Do I need this bond in place before I bid work in Rock Island County, or only before I break ground?
Rock Island County requires the bond before the county will issue a permit or complete your contractor registration — which typically needs to happen before you can legally start work. In practice, if you are pursuing permitted work in the county, you should have this bond secured before you submit your permit application. Waiting until you are ready to break ground could delay your project.
If I expand into a new county or city outside Rock Island County, does this bond cover me there too?
No. This bond is written specifically for Rock Island County, Illinois and only satisfies that county's requirement. If you begin taking on work in another county or municipality, that jurisdiction will have its own local bonding requirements — and you will need a separate bond to meet them. Bond Titan's catalog covers jurisdictions across Illinois and nationwide, so you can get bonded wherever your next job takes you.
