About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the demolition bond actually covers

Before a structure comes down inside the City of Alexandria, the City issues a demolition permit — and it can condition that permit on a surety bond. The bond is a public-protection guarantee: it backs the safe completion of the demolition, proper site restoration, and any obligations to the City's streets, sidewalks, and utilities affected by the work.

It's a three-party arrangement: you (the principal), the surety carrier, and the City of Alexandria (the obligee). If a demolition is abandoned, leaves a hazard, or damages public property and the contractor doesn't make it right, the City can recover against the bond to cover the cost.

The City sets the amount on your permit, usually tied to the scope or cost of the work. Whatever figure applies, we issue the bond at 0.5% of that amount, with a $100 minimum — and if the surety pays a claim, you repay the surety.
