Colorado sun and big day-night temperature swings are hard on exterior paint, so south and west elevations usually fail years before the rest of the house. In Denver specifically, a large share of the housing stock predates 1950, so plaster walls, cast-iron and clay sewer lines, knob-and-tube remnants and original single-pane windows all turn up regularly.

Permits: Denver issues its own building permits through Community Planning and Development; the city and county are the same jurisdiction here.

No. A listing means the business has read and agreed to the Go Denver Homes Pro Code of Ethics. It is not a verification of licenses, insurance, permits or workmanship, and it is not a recommendation. Get multiple written estimates and check credentials yourself.
