Permits & Building Codes
Finishing a basement in Colorado isn't a DIY handshake — it's a permitted, inspected construction project. We pull every permit, schedule every inspection, and build to the codes your city enforces, so your finished square footage is legal, insurable, and resale-ready.
The City of Fort Collins requires a building permit for any basement finish that adds walls, electrical, plumbing, or egress windows. Work must follow the 2021 International Residential Code (IRC) as adopted by the city, including:
We submit the full plan set to Fort Collins Building Review, schedule framing, electrical, and final inspections, and close out the permit so it shows as a completed, compliant project on the city's record.
The City of Greeley Building Division enforces the IRC and the Colorado State Electrical Board's rules. Basement finishes in Greeley and unincorporated Weld County require:
We coordinate with the Greeley Building Division and Weld County for properties outside city limits, pull every trade permit, and deliver the final inspection packet so your basement is documented and code-compliant.
Unpermitted basement finishes are the most common disclosure issue flagged on Northern Colorado home inspections. A finished basement without permits can force a price reduction at sale, trigger a reassessment, or be flagged for removal by a buyer's lender. Because we're a licensed general contractor with 24/7 restoration support, your basement is built, documented, and warrantied to the standard an appraiser and an insurer both want to see.
Reach out to us-no pressure. We'll have a real conversation to understand what you need and see if we're a good fit for each other.
If it sounds right, we'll come to you. We take a close look, answer your questions, and offer honest input based on experience.
You'll get a clear scope of work, realistic timelines, and an estimate. No vague promises, just honest and trustworthy work.
From start to finish, we show up, stay in touch, and do the job right. We treat your space with care, and we finish proud of what we've built-because you matter to us.

Tim and his crew did an amazing job repairing the damage from a water leak I had in my condo's bathroom. His team replaced my broken toilet which was the cause of the leak, repaired the damaged flooring, baseboards and drywall. They also did a great job painting, making it look like nothing even happened. I'm very impressed with the quality of service and the work they do! Thanks again for your help.

Integrity Construction Company is absolutely amazing! The work that Tim has done on this house has included everything from electrical to plumbing, fencing & windows, doors & attics. You name it, he's done it and done it well. Last year he tackled the bathrooms. Enjoy the pictures then call him to work on your project.

I am grateful to have found Timothy Lee & Integrity Construction. We started with a reconstruction of a flooded bathroom & we haven't stopped my home projects yet. Beyond the quality of the workmanship, the communication & coordination of services is excellent. The subcontractors are carefully selected by Timothy, are well-informed about each project, & complete the work as scheduled.

I met Tim Lee over 2 years ago after my condo suffered extensive smoke damage due to a fire in the unit below me. Tim was recommended by a friend who knew his work well. I found Tim to be respectful and sympathetic to my circumstances and understood what needed to be done and my time frame. I always felt he had my best interest in everything.

It means a lot when you can recommend a company that you can trust to your parents. Tim was great with my parent's repairs on their rental home. He is honest and makes sure the work is done right. Thank you Tim.
