Looking up a specific address in 76249

Ask that permit office for a property's permit history, or search its public records by address.

How these numbers are made

Source: City of Denton Building Safety permits on homes (the city's yearly permit reports). The window is October 2023 through September 2026. Each permit is placed by its property's ZIP code (the address on the permit, or the parcel's when the permit has none).

Counted: permits on homes for the 17 kinds of work we track (new home, irrigation, HVAC, water heater, water & sewer line, window & door replacement, fence, roofing, gas line, foundation repair, electrical, plumbing, remodel & repair, solar, patio, deck & porch, swimming pool, generator) where the record names a contractor. Not counted: commercial work, trades we don't read, and permits with no contractor (owner-pulled work). So this is not the city's count of every permit in 76249.

A ZIP code does not follow city or county lines; these count only permits in the City of Denton. Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits.
