Permits Required for Home Renovations in Denver

Navigating Denver’s Permit Process with 303 Construction

Before starting a home renovation, it’s important to understand Denver’s building permit requirements. Certain home remodeling projects require city approval to ensure safety, zoning compliance, and structural integrity. At 303 Construction, we handle the permit application process to keep your renovation on track and compliant.

When Do You Need a Permit?

Denver requires permits for structural, electrical, plumbing, and mechanical work. Common projects needing permits include:

  • Wall removals or structural modifications.
  • Electrical rewiring or panel upgrades.
  • Plumbing changes (moving sinks, installing new piping).
  • HVAC system installations.
  • Roofing replacements (if decking or structure is altered).

How to Obtain a Permit in Denver

The City of Denver’s Development Services oversees the permit process. Steps include:

  1. Submit project plans online or in person.
  2. Wait for plan review & approvals (may take weeks to months).
  3. Pay permit fees, which vary by project type.
  4. Schedule city inspections to ensure compliance.

What Happens if You Skip a Permit?

  • Fines & penalties – Denver may issue stop-work orders or fines for unpermitted work.
  • Resale issues – Unpermitted renovations can delay home sales.
  • Safety risks – Work not inspected by the city could pose safety hazards.
