Remodeling & general contracting in North Washington
North Washington is one of the oldest housing pockets we serve and one of the least understood. It is unincorporated Adams County, sitting in the industrial corridor north of downtown Denver — the Denver Post prints here — and its houses are genuinely old by metro standards. Roughly two-thirds of the homes predate 1960 and about a fifth were built before 1940. These are small, solidly framed houses that have been standing through everything the Front Range has thrown at them, and most have never had a real renovation.

As a licensed, insured general contractor based in nearby Greenwood Village, BH Builders manages every trade in-house or under one roof — so North Washington homeowners get a single point of contact, a fixed written scope, and one crew accountable from demolition to the final walkthrough. No juggling subcontractors, no finger-pointing.

North Washington homes we work on
The stock is predominantly modest single-family homes from the 1940s, 50s and 60s, with a meaningful share of manufactured housing as well. Work here is practical and high-value: opening a compartmentalized kitchen, updating an original bathroom, replacing failing windows, finishing or waterproofing a basement, and correcting decades of deferred maintenance. Older homes reward careful investigation before demolition — what is behind the plaster in a 1952 house is rarely what the previous owner assumed — so we scope from the actual conditions rather than a template.

Permits & building codes in North Washington
Most remodeling work in North Washington — anything touching structure, electrical, plumbing or mechanical systems — requires a permit and inspections. We handle the entire process so your project is code-compliant and on record, which protects both your safety and your home's resale value.

- Local permits. North Washington permits and inspections run through the Adams County Building Safety Division (North Washington is unincorporated). We file with them directly and schedule every inspection for you.
- The full North Washington permit picture. Fees, timelines, quirks and the documents you'll need are all covered in the North Washington section of our Denver-metro permit guide — including a free permit & fee estimator.
- Licensed trades. Colorado electricians and plumbers are state-licensed — you can verify any contractor's license through the Colorado DORA license lookup.
- Lead-safe work. The large majority of North Washington homes predate 1978, so federal lead-safe renovation practices apply to nearly every project here — that is standard procedure for us, not an add-on. See the EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting program.
