Overview
Professional contractors working in Granbury, Texas need this bond on file with the city before they can legally operate under a local permit or registration. Granbury's Professional Contractor's Bond is a city-level requirement — it is not connected to a Texas state contractor license and does not substitute for one. It puts the City of Granbury and the public in a protected position if you fail to meet the obligations tied to your local registration. Get bonded, get registered, and get to work.
Who Needs This Bond?
You're a professional contractor who has been told by the City of Granbury that you need a surety bond to pull permits or register locally. This requirement applies to contractors — general contractors, specialty trades, and others working under Granbury's permitting system — who want to do business within city limits. If Granbury's building or permit office is asking for proof of a contractor's bond, this is the one. It is a local city requirement, not a state licensing step.
What is this Bond For?
Granbury's Professional Contractor's Bond protects the city and its residents if a bonded contractor fails to perform work according to local codes, permit conditions, or contractual obligations. It creates a financial backstop that holds contractors accountable for the commitments tied to their local registration. This is not a performance bond for a single job — it is a standing compliance bond that covers your activity as a registered contractor in the City of Granbury. The bond signals to the city that you are a legitimate, accountable professional.
When is it Required?
Before you pull your first permit in Granbury, this bond must already be in place. The City of Granbury requires proof of the bond as a condition of issuing or maintaining your local contractor registration — not after your first job, not at inspection time. If you are bidding work inside city limits and you have not yet secured this bond, you are not ready to register. Get bonded first, then complete your registration with the city.
Where Does it Apply?
This bond applies exclusively within the City of Granbury, Texas. It satisfies the bonding requirement imposed by Granbury's local permitting and contractor registration process, not any state agency. If you work in other Hood County municipalities or elsewhere in Texas, those jurisdictions may have their own separate bond requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Granbury Professional Contractor's Bond need to be in place before I bid work, or only before I break ground?
You need it before you register with the City of Granbury — and registration has to happen before you can legally pull permits. That means, practically speaking, you need this bond in hand before you can bid projects that require a Granbury permit, since you won't be able to pull the permit without active local registration. Don't wait until you've won a job to start the bonding process.
I'm already bonded in another city or county in Texas. Does that bond cover my work in Granbury?
No. A bond issued for another jurisdiction — whether it's a neighboring Hood County city or a bond from somewhere else in Texas — does not satisfy Granbury's local requirement. The City of Granbury requires a bond naming it as the obligee and tied to your local registration there. If you're expanding into Granbury, you need this bond specifically for that city, in addition to whatever you already carry elsewhere.
Does this bond replace my general liability insurance or workers' comp coverage?
No — and this is an important distinction. The Granbury Professional Contractor's Bond is a compliance bond that protects the city and the public if you fail to meet the obligations of your local registration. It does not cover bodily injury, property damage from your operations, or your employees the way general liability and workers' comp do. Most contractors carrying this bond are also required to maintain those separate coverages. The bond and your insurance serve completely different purposes.
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.
