In Glen Ellyn every contractor on your permit has to be registered with the village and insured, with the village listed as additional insured, and the general contractor files a Contractor Listing Sheet naming everyone who will work on the house. Ask for that sheet before work starts.

The village enforces it: a contractor working in violation of the licence and insurance rules may be served with a citation or a Stop Work Order, or have the building permit suspended or revoked, which would stall your bathroom. Once issued, the permit has to be printed and posted where it can be seen from the public way.

If you do the work yourself on your own property, you are exempt from the village's contractor licence and insurance requirements. A company you pay gets no such exemption; the hiring guide covers what Illinois law expects of it.

The median Glen Ellyn home was built in 1971, the 1970s account for 2,217 of the village's 11,110 housing units, and 1,781 units are from 1939 or earlier. For most of those houses, a remodeler paid to disturb old paint has to follow the EPA's lead-safe work practices for homes built before 1978.
