What We Demolish

Demolition Permits in Brighton

Brighton's Building Division, 303-655-2017, issues demolition permits, and Brighton is one of the few metro cities that reviews older buildings whether or not they are designated: any structure 50 years or older goes through historic review before the permit, with a committee meeting within 45 days of referral and a Historic Preservation Commission decision within 60. Downtown Historic District properties need a certificate of appropriateness. For anything built before the mid 1970s, plan on that review in the schedule.

Everywhere in Colorado, the structure has to be inspected by a state certified asbestos inspector first, and CDPHE needs a demolition notification on file for ten working days before the teardown, even when no asbestos is found. Utilities get disconnected and documented before the city issues the permit. We prepare and coordinate the whole package and build the lead time into the proposal.

Rules and fees change. We confirm the current checklist with the city for your address when we scope the job. Full city by city rundown: demolition permits in the Denver metro.

Brighton Homes and What It Means for Demo

Brighton's core near downtown and the older blocks east of the railroad are pre war farmhouses and 1950s ranches, often on big lots with barns, sheds, and outbuildings left from the farm days, which is exactly the kind of structure the 50 year review catches. The subdivisions south and west are 1990s and newer, where the work is decks, patio covers, and basement remodel tear outs. Acreage properties on the edges of town bring us barn and outbuilding teardowns with lot clearing.

Serving Historic Downtown Brighton, Brighton East Farms, and the rural edge, and the rest of Brighton. We demo it and haul it away in one job, insured and local.
