Overview
Working in Bexley, Ohio means playing by Bexley's rules — and that starts with being bonded. Contractors operating within city limits must carry a City of Bexley Contractor's License Bond before they can register locally and pull permits. This bond protects the City of Bexley and its residents by holding your business financially accountable if your work causes a violation or loss covered under the bond. Get bonded, get registered, and get to work.
Who Needs This Bond?
General contractors, remodelers, and specialty trade contractors all need this bond if they plan to work within Bexley city limits. This includes contractors doing residential renovations, light commercial work, and any trade-specific jobs that require pulling a local permit through the City of Bexley. If you've been told by the city that you need a contractor's license bond to register or pull a permit in Bexley, this is the bond you need.
What is this Bond For?
This bond is a financial guarantee to the City of Bexley that you will perform your work in compliance with local ordinances, regulations, and licensing requirements. If your work results in a covered violation or damages that the city determines you are responsible for, a claim can be filed against the bond. It is not insurance for your business — it is a compliance instrument that backs your obligation to the city. The bond keeps your local registration in good standing.
When is it Required?
Before the City of Bexley issues your local contractor registration or allows you to pull a permit, you will be required to submit proof of this bond. The bond request typically comes at the point of your initial contractor registration application or renewal with the city. You will not be able to legally operate under a Bexley contractor registration without it in place. Have your bond certificate ready when you submit your paperwork to the city.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond is specific to the City of Bexley, Ohio and satisfies the city's local contractor bonding requirement only. It is not a state of Ohio contractor license bond and does not satisfy any requirements imposed by the Ohio Construction Industry Licensing Board or any other state agency. If you work in other municipalities in the Columbus metro area, those jurisdictions have their own separate bonding requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this bond replace my general liability insurance or workers' comp in Bexley?
No — and this distinction matters. Your Bexley Contractor's License Bond is a compliance instrument, not a liability policy. It does not cover property damage to a client's home, bodily injury on a job site, or your employees' work-related injuries. The City of Bexley may require you to carry general liability and workers' compensation coverage separately as part of your local registration. The bond and your insurance serve completely different purposes and neither substitutes for the other.
Are subcontractors I hire covered under my Bexley Contractor's License Bond?
No. Your bond covers your obligations as the licensed contractor registered with the City of Bexley — it does not extend to subcontractors working under you. Each subcontractor performing work in Bexley that requires their own local registration or permit must carry their own bond meeting the city's requirements. If you are a subcontractor working under a general contractor in Bexley, you still need your own bond if the city's registration process requires it of your trade.
What information do I need to have ready when I buy this bond online?
When you open the My Bond App portal to purchase your Bexley Contractor's License Bond, you'll want to have your business name exactly as it appears on your registration documents, your business entity type (sole proprietor, LLC, corporation, etc.), your principal address, and any local registration or license number assigned by the City of Bexley if you already have one. Having this information accurate and consistent with what you submit to the city prevents delays in getting your registration approved.
What happens after I click Buy This Bond Online?
You'll open the My Bond App portal in a new tab where you can complete the secure online bond application and finish your purchase. Your Bond Titan tab stays open so you can come back and keep browsing.
Can I buy this bond entirely online?
Yes. Bond Titan connects you directly to the online bond application — there's no paperwork to mail in and no agent appointment required to get started.
Is Bond Titan a licensed agency?
Bond Titan is powered by The Southern Agency, a licensed surety bond agency. We've built Bond Titan so you can find the exact bond you were told to buy and get to the purchase flow in seconds.
