About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the bond actually guarantees

The City of Bellefontaine licenses contractors before they can pull permits and work in the city. The license is conditioned on a $10,000 contractor bond running to the City of Bellefontaine as obligee.

The bond guarantees you will perform work to the City's code, correct defective work, and follow the terms of your license and permits. If you violate the building code or leave a job unfinished and the City or a property owner is harmed, they can recover against the bond.

The bond must stay active for the life of your license. Let it lapse and the City can suspend your license — so we track it and notify you 60 and 30 days out, keeping your $10,000 filing continuous.

FAQs

Common questions.

If yours isn't here, the bond team can usually answer within the hour.

How much is the City of Bellefontaine contractor bond? +
The premium is $300 — a flat 3% of the fixed $10,000 bond amount, the same for every contractor. The $10,000 is set by the City, so there is no quote process.
Do I pay the $10,000? +
No. You pay $300. The $10,000 is the surety's maximum liability if a valid claim is made against the bond — not a deposit, and nobody holds your money.
How fast will I have the bond? +
License bonds like this are among the thousands of bond types that issue right after purchase — many contractors finish the application and have the bond in the same sitting. At most, 1–2 business days.
Is there a credit check? +
Not on this bond — the application has no credit section at all. Small fixed-amount license bonds like this one don't need one.
When does it renew? +
The bond must stay active for as long as you hold the license. You can buy a 1, 2, or 3-year term; we send renewal notices 60 and 30 days out, with autopay available, so your license never lapses over a missed email.
