Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Does the City of Boulder require testing for homes built after 1980?
Yes. While some federal guidelines focus on older homes, the City of Boulder and the State of Colorado (CDPHE) require a certified inspection for buildings of any age if the renovation exceeds the trigger levels.
2. What are the specific "trigger levels" in Boulder?
You must have a professional inspection if your project disturbs more than:
32 square feet of surfacing material (drywall, plaster, popcorn ceilings).
50 linear feet of pipe insulation.
A 55-gallon drum equivalent of waste.
3. How do I submit my report to the building department?
Once our certified inspector completes the site visit and the lab analyzes the samples, we provide a digital PDF report. You can upload this directly to your building permit application via the City of Boulder’s online portal.
