We publish counts by ZIP code and by contractor, not a list of permits by street address. The full record for one property, with every permit, its status and its inspections, is kept by the office that issued the permits; our source here is City of Waco EnerGov building, electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits on homes (the city's June 9, 2026 permit extract), with the contractor taken from each permit's public contact list on the city's Citizen Self Service site. Ask that permit office for a property's permit history, or search its public records by address.

Source: City of Waco EnerGov building, electrical, plumbing and mechanical permits on homes (the city's June 9, 2026 permit extract), with the contractor taken from each permit's public contact list on the city's Citizen Self Service site. The window is June 2023 through May 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 11 kinds of work we track (electrical, roofing, plumbing, HVAC, new home, irrigation & backflow, gas line, water & sewer line, solar, remodel & repair, swimming pool) 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 76707.
A ZIP code does not follow city or county lines; these count only permits in the City of Waco. Counts are permits, not jobs: one job can need several permits.
