Our Services
Longmont’s Building Services department administers all electrical permits through the city’s Development Services Center, with the 2023 NEC adopted July 24, 2024, and local amendments that reflect the city’s own utility requirements through Longmont Power and Communications. Contractors working in Longmont must hold a valid city contractor license and coordinate inspections through the city, separately from Boulder County’s authority, which covers only unincorporated areas. Old Town’s pre-1950 homes require the most careful electrical evaluation, while the city’s newer 1990s and 2000s neighborhoods are reaching the age where panels begin to fall short of modern household demands.

Where We Serve
Longmont’s neighborhoods range from the Victorian homes and craftsman bungalows of Old Town and the Sunset neighborhood to the planned communities developed east and south of the city center over the past three decades. Old Town’s pre-war properties require the most attentive electrical evaluation, with original and early-replacement wiring that varies considerably from property to property. McIntosh Lake and Terry Lake add lakefront properties to the mix, while Clover Basin, Somerset Meadows, and Renaissance represent the city’s primary newer residential growth, where homes built in the 1990s and 2000s are now reaching the point where original panels need reassessment. Precision Plumbing Heating, Cooling & Electric serves the whole city, including the following neighborhoods:
Longmont’s combination of a municipal utility with its own service requirements, a city-administered permit system, and a housing stock that stretches from the 1880s to the present makes it a market where working with a contractor who understands all three layers produces noticeably better outcomes. Precision Plumbing Heating, Cooling & Electric coordinates every qualifying project through the City of Longmont’s Building Services department, prices each job before work begins, and maintains 24-hour availability across Boulder County and the northern Front Range.

FAQ
Still have a question? Call our team for help.
Yes, the company services properties throughout Longmont, from the Victorian-era and craftsman homes in Old Town and the Sunset neighborhood to the planned communities developed over the past three decades. Technicians are prepared for the distinct electrical conditions each era presents.
The City of Longmont’s Building Services department issues all electrical permits for properties within city limits, at the Development Services Center, 385 Kimbark Street. Boulder County’s building authority covers only unincorporated parcels outside the city. The 2023 NEC was adopted by Longmont effective July 24, 2024, with local amendments that incorporate Longmont’s municipal utility requirements.
Longmont operates its own electric utility, Longmont Power and Communications, which has service and connection requirements that go beyond the NEC and must be coordinated alongside the city’s standard permit process. Contractors unfamiliar with LPC’s requirements can create delays and additional correction steps that extend project timelines and costs.
Homes built during that period were wired for the household loads of 25 to 35 years ago, before EV charging circuits, expanded home office infrastructure, and upgraded HVAC systems became standard. Panels originally sized at 150 to 200 amps in those properties often reach practical limits before homeowners identify the panel as the constraint.
Project costs depend on the age and configuration of the existing system, any LPC coordination requirements, the scope of work required under the 2023 NEC, and the complexity of the installation. Precision Plumbing Heating, Cooling & Electric provides a complete per-job quote before any work begins so Longmont homeowners know the full cost in advance.
Yes. A dedicated EV charging circuit in a Longmont home requires a permit through the City of Longmont’s Building Services department before work begins, and any connection requirements through Longmont Power and Communications must also be addressed. A licensed contractor must perform the installation, and the completed work must pass a city inspection before the permit is closed.
