What a whole-home remodel means in Golden

A full Golden remodel is really about the parts you cannot see.

Golden was founded in 1859 and incorporated in 1871, and it sits on Clear Creek at an elevation of about 5,675 feet. A whole-home remodel here is as much about permits, old systems, soil, and wildfire rules as it is about finishes. Here is what we plan for across the house.

Two jurisdictions, one project

In-town homes permit with the City of Golden Building Division under Municipal Code Chapter 15.08. Foothills homes in unincorporated Jefferson County permit through the county. We know which office your address (and whether it is R-1, R-1A, or R-2) falls under, and we run the permits and inspections either way.

Old systems in older homes

Homes near the 12th Street Historic District hide old supply and drain lines, early wiring, and plaster-and-lath walls. A whole-home remodel is the moment to update all of it at once while the walls are open, so you are not tearing into fresh finishes next year.

Historic districts and the exterior

If your home is in a Golden historic district, most exterior changes need a Certificate of Appropriateness from the Historic Preservation Board. Interiors are usually clear. We map out which parts of your remodel touch the review and plan the schedule around it.

Foothills wildfire rules

Homes above 6,400 feet in elevation can fall under the county wildland-urban interface rules, which can require a defensible space review for an addition or a major remodel. We build that step into the plan so the project does not stall at the county.

Well, septic, and slope

Foothills homes in Genesee and Lookout Mountain are often on a private well and septic on a sloped lot. Adding bathrooms or bedrooms can affect the septic sizing, which Jefferson County permits, so we check what the property can carry before we design.

Soil that moves

The Front Range ground around Golden includes claystone that swells when wet. It matters for basements, additions, and floors. We keep water away from the foundation and build to the local standard so the whole remodel stays tight as the ground shifts.

Golden whole-home questions

What homeowners ask us.

Do you handle the whole house, or just one room?
The whole house. Kitchen, bathrooms, basement, flooring, and paint under one owner-led crew, so you are not managing five different companies. Golden homes often need several of those at once, and doing them together keeps the schedule and the budget under control.
Do I permit a whole-home remodel through the City of Golden or the county?
It depends where your home sits. In-city homes permit with the City of Golden Building Division under Municipal Code Chapter 15.08. Foothills and unincorporated homes like Genesee and Lookout Mountain permit through Jefferson County. We know which office your address falls in and pull the permits and inspections either way. Confirm current fees with the city or county.
My home is old. What usually needs updating in a full Golden remodel?
In homes near the 12th Street area, the systems are the story: old supply and drain lines, early wiring, plaster-and-lath walls, and a single small bathroom. A whole-home remodel is the moment to update all of it at once while the walls are open, so you are not back in a year.
We are up in the foothills. What extra steps come with that?
Foothills homes bring a few. Above 6,400 feet in elevation the county wildland-urban interface rules can require a defensible space review, many homes are on a private well and septic, and lots are sloped. We plan for all of it up front so the project does not stall at inspection.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. JAC Enterprise is licensed and insured. License and insurance details come with your written estimate.
