Hartville, OH — Contractor Bond
Hartville's contractor and subcontractor registration packet calls for a $10,000 surety bond to the Village. Each subcontractor needs a registration application; being listed by the general contractor does not complete that step.

What this bond does
Support the applicant's own registration with the Village of Hartville Building Department for the applicable work.
- Who needs it
- Contractors and subcontractors covered by Hartville's published registration packet. The included ordinance separately exempts work personally performed by owners on their primary residential dwellings.
- Who it protects
- The Village's bond form requires faithful performance of the duties and compliance with the laws and ordinances applicable to the identified license or permit. It is not the separate liability policy or a blanket completion/payment bond for every job.

Questions about this bond
Does the general contractor's subcontractor list register me?
No. The packet says each subcontractor must complete a contractor registration form.
Does the calendar-year registration establish automatic bond renewal?
No. The bond has both printed expiry and continuing/cancellation wording. Confirm the bond's treatment with the Village and surety for your actual registration.
Does a homeowner doing their own work need contractor registration?
The ordinance included in the packet exempts work personally performed by property owners on or to their primary residential dwellings. That is not a general exemption for contractors hired by the owner.
