Construction & Remodeling in Denver, CO

Denver mixes homes built before 1940 with large condo and apartment buildings and newer infill. Work we plan here includes kitchen and bath remodels in older houses, condo updates, hail-related roof replacements and new homes on existing lots. Denver runs its own building code, energy code and landmark review.

What shapes a project in Denver

Local conditions worth knowing before scope and budget are set.

  1. A mix of houses and large buildings

    In the 2024 American Community Survey, about 40 percent of Denver's roughly 372,000 housing units were single-family detached homes, and about 24 percent were in buildings with 50 or more units. Condo and apartment work may need building management approval as well as a city permit.

  2. Older homes and landmark districts

    About 16 percent of Denver's housing was built before 1940 and about 32 percent before 1960, while about 35 percent was built in 2000 or later. For individual landmarks and properties in historic districts, Denver requires landmark review for all exterior work that needs a building, zoning, curb cut or encroachment permit.

  3. Demolition review citywide

    Denver's Landmark Preservation staff review all total demolition permit applications citywide, including for buildings that are not landmarks or in historic districts. If staff see potential for landmark designation, notice is posted for 21 days, so anyone planning to replace an older house should allow time for this step.
