What concrete flatwork covers
Flatwork in the Denver metro includes patios, private driveways, walkways, and slabs on the lot, plus public sidewalks, curb ramps, and driveway aprons in the right-of-way. Those two locations use different permit paths. A municipally licensed Denver general contractor coordinates the project and licensed specialty trades. Cost is project-specific and depends on area, thickness, and whether the pour sits in the public way.
text
Private lot versus public sidewalk
Reconstruction of a City sidewalk requires a permit before work begins (Denver Municipal Code Sec. 49). Denver DOTI Right-of-Way Services regulates curbs, gutters, sidewalks, driveways, and other ROW improvements, including driveway aprons. Private patios and drives are typically a zoning and drainage question: site plans often dimension patio and drive coverage, and parking surfaces must meet neighborhood-inspection rules. Grading changes can trigger SUDP review.
text
Permits and who coordinates the work
DOTI handles ROW concrete and street occupancy. City and County of Denver Community Planning and Development handles zoning and building on private property. Cities and counties license general contractors. Colorado has no statewide general contractor license. Autotelic acts as a municipally licensed Denver general contractor and coordinates licensed specialty trades for flatwork scopes.
text
What buyers should prepare
Whether the pour is on the lot or in the sidewalk/apron, drainage direction, and photos of the existing curb cut.
FAQ
Common questions
Does a patio need a Denver permit?
Often a zoning review when coverage or setbacks change. A public sidewalk or apron needs a DOTI ROW permit before work starts.
Who handles flatwork permits and licensing?
A municipally licensed Denver general contractor coordinates the project and licensed specialty trades. Colorado has no statewide general contractor license.
Is the driveway apron the same as the driveway?
No. The apron is the portion in the public right-of-way next to the street. That piece follows DOTI rules, not just private-lot zoning.
Can I park on dirt?
Neighborhood inspections do not allow parking on dirt. Allowed surfaces depend on dwelling type (gravel, road base, asphalt, or concrete).
What information helps define scope?
Lot vs ROW, square footage, drainage photos, and city or county.
